  • S7E6: Brian Auger

    S7E6: Brian Auger
    May 18 2024

    This brilliant Brian Auger joins Gary and Guy this week for another must listen episode of Rockonteurs.

    Brian is a total gent and was there from the earliest days of Rock and Roll as the go to organ and piano guy.

    He formed The Steampacket with Long John Baldry, Julie Driscoll, and Rod Stewart in 1965. His influence is felt far and wide in the business and artists like Elton John and Jools Holland cite Brian as a massive influence.

    He’s funny, charming, and hugely entertaining and his music is well worth a listen.

    May 4 2024

    This week we welcome Joe Elliott back to the podcast. Joe is in town to talk about the reissue of Pyromania and it doesn’t take long before Guy, Gary, and Joe are discussing their favourite artists and their favourite gigs. Joe is the perfect guest for this podcast because he’s such a music fan as much as being a global rock and roll star.
