  • EP#6 - Frankie Lee & Judas Priest, Said the Joker to the Thief
    Nov 3 2025

    Why are we discussing a Jimi Hendrix tune? Is All Along The Watchtower, Dylan’s most-performed song, a critique of the Music and Acting Industry? Who recorded the most boring cover version? The best? Who in their right mind releases a major album two days after Christmas? How did Elvis come to sing his only Dylan song? Who loves an outlaw? What did Ozzy Osbourne say about the Beatles? What does Daniel Crespin say? What do you say?


    What two words from The Ballad of Frankie Lee and Judas Priest keep us up at night? What did The Saturday Evening Post say about Dylan and his manager? Is Judas Priest a band or a minced oath? What were the terms of Bob’s recording contract after 1967? What do Disraeli Gears, the first Doors album and Donovan’s Greatest Hits have in common?
