Back to the first record! We’re trapped in the seventies for a third week in a row and we are not mad about that! I checked on Wikipedia and apparently, this Jesus fella was kind of a big deal in Judea in the 0000s. You probably know him best from his range of sandles and uncomfortable headware but to many he was much better known as a carpenter, principally through his Dad’s construction business. There was a lot of property development around Jerusalem at the time as the populaton bounced back from Psycho Herod’s mad slaughter campaign a few years earlier. Incredibly, Herod faced no charges and was retained as monarch for a substantial period! Sorry, I got a bit carried away down the Wikipedia rabbit hole there. In this episode we talk quite an awful lot about Queen! And why not. That’s what the podcast is about after all!
We also listen to the De Lane Lea version of Jseus to see how it differs from the eventual recorded version.
If Randy were to title this episode, he’d probably call it “I bet Jesus couldn’t drive a stick shift” or possibly “Stone Cold Jesus!”
Today’s episode covers the penultimate track from Queen’s debut album “Jesus”.
NOTE: If you want to skip ahead to Randy and Kev’s manifestations and the wheel spin, that happens at 34:23!
Thanks to everyone who tuned in to the last episode and left us some comments on Twitter and Facebook! We’ll always try to answer any questions you have and seriously appreciate any corrections you make to anything we get wrong. And thanks so much for all your support as usual. We’re loving diving into the Queen fandom a little more deeply as much as we’re enjoying recording the podcasts!
