Once upon a time, there was a guitarist named Mick Mars. He practiced every day. He practiced every night. He got so good that a famous musician named David invited him to be one of the spiders from Mars. After recording and touring for years with the Thin Ziggy Starman, he wanted to challenge himself more musically, so he joined the highly sophisticated intellectual rockers, Mötley Crüe, who didn't have a shit name or a shit singer and a shit drummer. Mick became the most succesful guitar player in the world. Then he died. The end. According to Kev.
If Randy were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Forget regrets" or possibly, "Hey guys, check out this fill!"
Today's episode looks at the only Roger composition featured on Queen II, an ode to a dysfunctional maternal relationship, "The Loser in the End"
NOTE: Skip forward to 16:43 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.
The music at the end is "Charisma Free" taken from Randy Woods Band's debut record. If you wanna listen to it (and you definitely should, lots), go check that out here: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Vjt_wffBiXk
