Was It All Worth It

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

02/06/25 • 80 min

You know that saying "Go big or go home"? What if you were to do both? Well, that's what Queen attempted with the final track on The Miracle. They fired up the old Kurzweil, made Roger play a real drum kit and, if you can believe it, actually sat in a room as a band and recorded this one together. One of our listeners really sticks the boot in, so we return it in kind, and Randy is pondering an SPR move into the political sphere. It's not a good idea. At all. Plus, Ruddy has a question for us and we think you'll like it!

If Randy were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Not sure how I feel about the old Kurzweil" or possibly, "I hope Freddie thought it was worth it"

Today's episode looks at the final track on The Miracle, with Freddie wondering, "Was It All Worth It".

NOTE: Skip forward to 21:54 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The music at the end of the episode is taken from UK show, The Last Leg and features Alex Horne and The Horne Section singing a soulful, nostalgic song about the simple country life. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/74UZNexK8a4

Dead On Time

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

01/02/25 • 53 min

The increase of disorder or entropy is what distinguishes the past from the future, giving a direction to time. That’s according to noted layabout and robot impersonator Stephen Hawking. So I wouldn’t take any advice from that guy! You know who does know about time though? Brian Harold May, that’s who! Set your watches and dust off the old sundial, cos we’re talkin’ Queen!

If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it “Hurry, Hurry, Hurry, Hurry”, or possibly, “You’re Dead!”

Today's episode looks at Brian's blazing rocker that everyone else hated and refused to play live; "Dead On Time", the jazziest song on Jazz!

NOTE: Skip forward to 15:15 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The music at the end of the episode is "Blame Shifter" by Randy Woods Band. You can find that here: https://youtu.be/EWoKvugRfhU

The Night Comes Down

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

03/13/25 • 74 min

It's all kicking off! We've been bollocked by one of our listeners for not knowing enough about Marc Martel. We feel scolded and recalcitrant and we won't let it happen again. The next time we cover a Marc Martel song, we'll give a much more comprehensive bio on him! We'll even try to track down his mom to ask some very searching questions about Marc's teenage bedroom habits! Also, there seems to a mutiny brewing in the Scottish highlands as the otherwise mellow and decent Ruddy Rutherford seems to be planning an insurrection of sorts with a crew of ne'er do wells and malcontents! Oh - and we talked about Queen for a bit.

If Randy were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "The night comes down every night Bri" or possibly, "The song is brill!"

Today's episode looks at a song that predates the Trident sessions, Brian's "The Night Comes Down"

NOTE: Skip forward to 19:16 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The song at the end of the episode is a little bit of bespoke noodling especially for this episode from the mind and fingers of The Cardinal, Randy Woods.

All Dead, All Dead

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

12/19/24 • 54 min

'E's passed on! This cat is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-FELINE!

If Randy were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Why dead pussy cat?" or possibly, "Unalived Kitty"

Today's episode looks at arguably the best dead cat song in the rock n roll canon; "All Dead, All Dead"

NOTE: Skip forward to 15:32 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The music at the end of the episode is "Through The Years" by Kev Brown; the first song he ever recorded with Randy. You can find that here: https://youtu.be/Lk22VORICbU

Also, we played a little of the phenomenal Michael Kaeshammer's version of St. James Infirmary Blues, which you can find here: https://youtu.be/7JajzoxELEQ

She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettoes)

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

03/28/24 • 66 min

Queen: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Seaside Pod Review. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new songs; to seek out new lyrics and new musicla expressions; to boldly go where millions of people have gone before! It's all a bit moody over here at the SPR. Randy hasn't forgotten his suitcase this time and Kev's German accent is definitely on point!

If Randy were to title this episode, he'd probably call it “Darth Vadar in flats” or possibly, “When I get home I'm gonna rip my wife's underwear right off, cos the waistband is killing me.”

Today's song covers Brian's funereal dirge "She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettoes)" from 1974's superb "Sheer Heart Attack".

The cover version of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' Listen to Her Heart by Cyberattack, which is clipped in the episode, can be found here: https://youtu.be/EINdLqmcYH0

NOTE: Skip forward to 23:31 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin. We won't hold it against you!

Held

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

11/21/24 • 42 min

Yo! We're back with another Kofi ep peepils! It's a strange one. Like, really quite strange. It's by a band we knew nothing about and still know very little about! This week's song was requested by David A Wilson, who let me know in advance that it was a weird song! Did I mention that this one is a little off-kilter?

If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Angry kitty, mad kitty, little ball of hate", or possibly, "Like a big old baby".

The seventh episode in this podcast-within-a-podcast covers "Held", the first single from 1999's "Knock Knock", by SMOG. You can find it here: https://youtu.be/Mzvs7Lt7C70

If you want to get involved in the Kofi Klub, you can make a donation here: https://ko-fi.com/seasidepodreview and let us know which song you want us to add to the wheel! We also have a private channel in our Discord community for donors. Don't forget that all donations in the month of November will be donated to the Mercury Phoenix Trust!

The song in the research break and at the end is "Meine Mutter", by the German experimental trio Künstliche Dummheit. The single and it's alternate version are not currently released and was sent to Kev by a friend for inclusion.

Nevermore

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

02/27/25 • 61 min

Episode 113 wherein Kev discovers that he has a pretty valuable 7 incher on his hands. ON his hands, not in his hands. Get yer minds out of the gutter. That's later..... Anyway, there's all the usual shenanigans from all the usual suspects and we just have to keep winning pucks in the corners and getting shots to the net and if we just execute the game plan and give our goalie a chance, I'm sure we'll sports better than the other team sportses and emerge victorious! It's been a long day, this is all I've got.

If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it “There’s no living in my life any more” or possibly “Queen forever more!”

Today's episode looks at a Freddie's soaringly beautiful interlude on Side Black of Queen II, "Nevermore"

NOTE: Skip forward to 21:48 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The song at the end of the episode is the lead track from Randy Woods Band's second album. It's a little number called "Alphabet City". You can check it out here : https://youtu.be/nPPzvp-5hJU

Keep Yourself Alive

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

11/03/22 • 36 min

Well hello people of the internet and other places too! The first episode of the podcast is now out and we spun up track one of album one for in inaugral show. Randy likes the flanger and also reveals that he is in fact the pastor of the Church of Go Fuck Yourself! Apart from that, the boys talk about heavy drum sounds, the wisdom of playing guitar with a coin and how absolutely brilliant Queen were at straddling the line between pop and rock.

Come talk to us on social media. We'd love to hear what you think. We're pretty sure it's gonna get better than this, but in case it doesn't, we'll apologize in advance!

Rock It (Prime Jive)

Seaside Pod Review (A Queen Podcast)

01/30/25 • 72 min

Chappperrrrzzzzzzzz!!!!!

Look, we’re not gonna tell you how to live your lives, but really, if you’re watching a sport that needs music to be played all the way through as a distraction, is this a good use of your time? Well. Is it? Randy’s back from the desert, Kev’s in from the cold, Roger’s ready for a night on the town, and Bri has his stank knob dialled up to ten. So shoot and get your suit, cos we’re talkin’ Queen!

If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it “Prime Jive” or possibly “Get Dowwwwwwn”.

Today's episode looks at another Roger track and he's singing about rock n roll again! It's time for Rock It (Prime Jive)!!!

NOTE: Skip forward to 21:02 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The music at the end of the episode is "Soul Sucker" from Absofunkinlutely's second album, Blues Kid City. You can listen to it here: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=dDaByP0nXWs&list=OLAK5uy_lgIAgOOWvov2kvMRdeThNBvXPtsS_UYT8
