Planet Rock goes to a good home
Posted in Media, Branwell Johnson, Latest reporters' blogs June 4th, 2008 by Branwell Johnson
So Brian May was thwarted in his efforts to get his hands on digital station Planet Rock eh? What a relief.
I mean, who would you rather have giving their support to the venture – old poodle perm himself or the list of glorious guitar gods named in the linked story including Tony Iommi of the cranium-crushing Black Sabbath and Gary Moore, once of Thin Lizzy?
This is a rock station, right? So the man who created the template for heavy riffs in songs such as Paranoid and Iron Man (it is in the film of the same name) has more of a right to be involved than the guitar player on Crazy Little Thing Called Love and Radio Ga Ga.
And at least we’ll be spared plugs for that West End cringefest We Will Rock You.
