Summary

As far as Elis James is concerned – all knives and forks are the same. Why argue? On the cusp of heading out on the Holy Vible road, Elis & John put in a cracking performance this week. You can expect slightly more Queen than usual, a Welsh discussion about mince or mints, a sour (angry) taste and a bit of unwanted wee. Remember, you can get in touch on [email protected] (if you’re on e-mail. You’ve got to be on e-mail), and you can tune in across the UK every Saturday from 1pm til 4pm! Keep it session. Keep it Radio X. You can see Elis & John on their book tour! Go to http://www.elisandjohn.com for more details! [email protected] https://elisandjohnmerch.com/

0:00.0	Ellis James and John Robbins. Radio X.
0:04.8	Hello everyone. Welcome to the show. Thank you very much for downloading the podcast.
0:11.1	Relatively, it's quite a queenie show today. And I know often bang on about Queen when I'm not meant to, but we are actually sanctioned to do it.
0:19.5	There's a lot of obviously excitement around the Bohemian Rhapsody film.
0:22.4	For the first time ever, it was part of the plan.
0:25.5	And would it have been had I not championed Bohemian Rhapsody in the Best of British all those years ago?
0:31.7	Well, who knows?
0:32.6	Interesting, interesting.
0:34.3	But just one queen male from Jamie, who male, uh, from Jamie, who says, uh, as a 29 year old,
0:41.8	obviously wasn't around for the release of most of their work by. I remember vividly the release
0:45.3	of Made in Heaven when I must have been six or seven. Uh, this love for Queen came from my dad,
0:49.6	who only listened to Queen. Main in Heaven is a massively special album to me and my family having
0:54.5	lost our dad to cancer at 54 years old. As a kid, long car journeys would be dominated by at
0:59.4	least two or three plays of this album, which would be demanded by me and my brother so he could
1:03.2	pretend to play along with Brian May using our seat belts. God, I miss the past. Anyway, I was wondering
1:07.9	what John's general take on this record is. in my opinion, it just oozes absolutely everything you would want in a queen record. Well, very similar to you, Jamie. Made in Heaven came out, was sort of the first album that came out whilst I was a queen fan. And their only studio album that came out in my sort of years of queen fandom. Innuendo was obviously around and about when I first sort of got into their music. So I bought the album on all formats, ivory vinyl, cassette,
1:34.3	CD. I bought all the singles on all formats, CD and coloured vinyl and picture discs. So I
1:40.3	kind of know the album inside out, and I think because of the circumstances in which it was recorded, it is definitely a sort of a...
1:49.1	What's the way to say this?
1:50.9	I mean, it was mixed and put together after the time.
