The late great Tom Petty once said “I hate to generalize on a whole genre of music, but it does seem to be missing that magic element that it used to have.” Well, sometimes you just gotta shake things up and when the old bop is getting tired and needs a rest, you know what you gotta do. Get your leathers on bryl creme up that hair and flip a quarter into the jukebox, cos we’re talkin’ Queen!
If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Modern Times Rock n Roll" or possibly "Oldy timey washboard and fiddle"
Today's episode looks at Roger's first contribution to Queen, "Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll".
NOTE: Skip forward to 16:47 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.
The music at the end of the episode is "Wild Iris Dragon Woman" from Absofunkinlutely's debut album, Funk Shui. You can listen to it here: https://youtu.be/_wkaDgVWvxk

Previous Episode

Somebody New
Well, what were the chances of that? We spun two Struts songs in a row! Kev and Randy are starting to suspect they've been duped into producing a Young and Dangerous Podcast! Also, there's a lot more talk about Kev's dental regime than you might have expected...
If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Young and Dangerous", or possibly, "Adult and Cautious".
The ninth episode in this podcast-within-a-podcast covers another song from The Struts 2018 album, "Young and Dangerous". Two in a row!!! This week we're covering the melancholic ballad "Somebody New", courtesy of our pal Midwife Nicki. I you haven't heard it, you can find it here: https://youtu.be/ZWQ_ES92Y2c

Next Episode

Rock It (Prime Jive)
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
