or
2. listening to steve wright in the afternoon
you been time-travelling again? or are you perma-rooted to 1983?
I am familiar with the comedian as well. Isn't he the one that once met a sexy girl that was turned on by jewish cowboys and then introduced himself as "Bucky Weinstein"? :)
Nice.
Jazz is a great album, but the drum sound ruins it for me completely. Roger, what on earth were you thinking? The NOTW kit was the best he ever had!

is something afoot?
is this a creeping Roger Taylor awareness campaign before the solo releases?
Why the hell would the Steve Wright show suddenly uncover an obscure Roger written Queen track from '78.
Very odd.

Well working in my office its either Radio 2, crappy commercial radio and their playlist of the same 8 songs all day or Radio 1. Radio 2 is by far the best choice.
Steve Wright is a complete tool though.....
I don't think I've heard a song as obscure as Fun it on the radio ever here in Mexico. The least common would probably be Keep Yourself Alive or something.
On the other hand, many years ago I saw a Game Show where you listened to a song by an artist and had to guess its name. There was a category on "Queen" once; the contestants selected it first as they thought it would be easy but they didn't get one song right. No BoRhap, no Champions, etc. Instead they were treated to "Dragon Attack" and "Keep passing the open windows", haha :). The most famous one had to be "The show must go on".

BBC Radio 2 were playing tracks from Jazz all day, as it was Chris Evans' album of choice for their vinyl week. I woke up to Dreamer's Ball, then heard Jealousy just as I was leaving. Could hardly believe it myself!
Chris is a big Queen fan - had Roger on his Friday night TV show back in 1998 to promote Electric Fire, and I remember him getting the whole of Murrayfield to do an impromptu Radio Gaga during the Live 8 concert in 2005.
