Andy Timmons Picks The Essential Brian May

Andy Timmons shares his 10 Essential Brian May and Queen songs. Andy has been a lifelong Queen fan, even crediting Brian May with his discovery of harmony while studying songs from A Day At The Races as a young guitarist (a story he shares in this episode for the first time), but it was the recent success of the Bohemian Rhapsody film that inspired him to revisit the entire Queen catalog for a very serious, deep dive. Through sharing his ten essential Brian May/Queen songs, Andy tells great stories about connecting with these songs personally, the talent behind them and what sets these songs apart, the unique qualities of Brian's guitar tone, playing, and singing, even personal experiences of playing with a 1947 King George Sixpence - the same coin Brian famously uses to play his Red Special.

We close out the episode with Andy's gorgeous solo guitar rendition of Queen's You Take My Breathe Away/Bohemian Rhapsody - a MUST hear!!

Soundtrack Six-Pack, Volume Two

Do you have favorite songs that are buried in films and on soundtracks from yesteryear? So do we and lots and lots and LOTS of them! So we're breaking out the VCRs and dusting off the old vinyl for a sidecast series presenting short, sweet, and random collections of soundtrack gems.  Hosts Jon Lamoreaux of The Hustle Podcast, Joe Royland of Sit & Spin with Joe, and Eric Miller of Pods & Sods each bring two songs to share, hence the six-pack. Not a ton of research, not a ton of pontificating, just three friends sharing some of the greatest (albeit often obscure) soundtrack songs the world has ever known.

In Volume Two, we're unpacking some classics by George Hamilton, The Oceans, some cat named Bret Reilly, Thomas Dolby, Luscious Jackson and Eddie Van Halen.
