S9E473 - Queen ’A Night At The Opera’ with Oscar Herrera

Like many music lovers who came of age in the mid-70s, returning guest Oscar Herrera (The Sleep Of Reason, Halo, El Duende, Black Tape For A Blue Girl) first encountered Queen upon hearing their unlikely smash-hit single Bohemian Rhapsody on the radio. That song - and the album it came from, 1975s 'A Night At The Opera' - got him - and countless others - high. Including the host of this podcast.
