The Joe Elliott Show - Quotes
Show Intro
"Evening all. How are ya?. Welcome. It is the Joe Elliott show right here on the wonderful Planet Rock. On this wonderful Easter weekend. Happy Easter everyone. And don't forget the clocks do change tonight. I'm not gonna theme the show out on time. I've done that before. However there is a song later on in the set that you could literally set your watch to. This is not it. This is Lou Reed."
Keith Emerson/ELP
"When I was a little boy I was brow beaten with E.L.P. from my neighbour who was a couple of years older than me. But some of it did stick and I was really, really fond of that first E.L.P. album. And of course I'm playing it because we just lost Keith Emerson. Sadly another one gone but from the album E.L.P. we just heard Knife Edge."
Show Outro
"And that my friends is about it for this week. Been a pleasure as always. I shall be back with you next week at the same time god willing."
"Until then I'm gonna leave you with this. Now there's a bit of a clue with this one. If you listen to the ride out of the previous song. You actually hear Gary Holton singing the title of this song as the song fades off into the distance. And I'm playing this because what better way to celebrate Easter than with some fantastic tied in rock and roll. Yes Mott The Hoople from their Anthology collection with a Mick Ralphs version of Roll Away The Stone. How appropriate, Happy Easter everybody. See ya next week."
