I love that Steve just listens. You'll never hear him interrupt, and he doesn't get scared of a silent pause while he and the guest think. He is so good at interviewing.
@@johnryanm7553 Why would you get pleasure out of insulting someone you do not know & know nothing about. I would have rather had a nice exchange about Queen & Brian May. Your need to insult me & display vitriol says everything about you & nothing about me. Is your life so bad it pleasures you to try to insult me. That is sad & pathetic.
He is very comfortable. The other interview in which he just really enjoys himself is with Rick Wakeman, who, like Jonesey, is a smart guy and a musician.
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a method to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
Ben -as is Jonesy, is he’s a really good hearted fella (other than being a Chelsea supporter) who had a difficult childhood, very difficult childhood, and turned out to be a decent fella. Funny as hell, and I think he’s found his niche as a radio host, even though he was responsible for helping to create a whole movement and his own distinct style of guitar I can hear a guitar and I know it’s Steve Jones right away!
It's great to see people who have done it all (and I don't mean drugs, but life and music in generell) being so calm, laid back and clever. I can't believe he just turned 70. I would love to see Bruce Dickinson on that show, who's a very intelligent, articulate and talented guy, too. Lemmy would have been great, but... And then there's Mark Knopfler, David Gilmore, Greg Graffin (Bad Religion), Jello Biafra, Nick Cave, Jimmy Page, etc. Come on, Jonesy, get 'em.
Two of my favorite guitarists, for two completely different reasons. The thing they share in common that initially drew me to them was their individual tone. Jonesy had this big, powerful tone that always sounded (to me) like his guitar was cussing. I don’t know how else to describe it. I used to call it “the wall of fuck”, haha! And Brian just had that great mid-range Vox tone that cut right through. Great to see these two guitar heroes of mine together.
Steve is a very, very good interviewer. He has that rare ability...the naive enquirer, to create an environment where people just open up and talk about all manner of stuff. One of the best. Really interesting.
I know what you mean although I'm not sure he's naive. It's just that there's no agenda behind his questions, it feels genuine and non judgemental so people can feel safe about opening up. With Louis Theroux he plays naive but he's always got an agenda and is waiting for his interviewee to trip themselves up. And it is great tv but it's different to Jonesy which feels genuinely more relaxed.
He really is the best interviewer I can think of. He lets all of his guests, no matter who they are, actually talk. Most interviewers just talk all over their guests, ask stupid irrelevant questions, and make the interview about themselves rather than the guest they’re interviewing. Jonesy is pure class.
A legendary guitarist, an underrated song writer, a member of one of the best bands in history, a PhD in astrophysics, and a gentleman. I'm envious of him.
@@DaysOfDarknessUK.... We are all living on borrowed time, because we are all going to die eventually. He only meant that Brian is over 70, and at the tail end of his life. Unless you think Brian is immortal.
Jonesy knows how to interview properly... not like 99% of other American interviewers who would raher rattle on about themselves for most of the time.... I love Brian May's attitude towards animals and the universe etc. Lovely fella. ✌💖👍
Sometimes, when I need a lift, I just come back and listen to this conversation with these two remarkable men. Good wishes to and gratitude for them both!
yeah brian is spot on with everythin-- so caring and humble-- love how he respects the animals etc... be a sad day when brians no longer here i know that,,,,
Enjoy listening to Brian giving interviews. He is such a wonderful person & explains everything so well & makes sure everyone understands what is going on. Thank you for sharing all that you are doing & going through. Sending much well wishes to such a terrific person. Love & hugs to a great man.
Steve, you found your niche in being able to talk to other rockers besides being a true rocker yourself man. You being on a level where someone like Brian May feels comfortable talking about everything. I'm really glad you're doing this now. Glad your health is up to the task and hope you plug on for years.
Back in 1984 I was staying in the Parker Meridian Hotel in New York and when the elevator doors opened to take me down for breakfast the whole of Queen (except for Freddie Mercury) was standing there. Then, a few hours later I bumped into them all again in a camera shop, two great moments for me. And then last week I bumped into Bill Wyman in a cafe in the King's Road (New Year's Eve 2019).
My favorite description of him was "Brian May is Jimmy Page with class." Always made me laugh because it kind of fits, not that Page has no class, but his playing can be a bit more raw.
Puppy 1975 - some could see your remark as ‘forcing’ your ideal about this interview. It’s an interview and Jonsey took the interview in that direction. Simple - but not easy for all us with thin skin (pretty well all of humanity). Sharing my ‘ideal’ for what it’s worth.
I don't live in LA anymore, but when I did, I couldn't get enough of Mark and Brian. Best radio show in the world. As a former punker, nothing like seeing Steve Jones and and Brian May, two legends.
I first got acquainted with Brian May back in 1974. Run into him in different places around the globe from time to time over the years. Funny when he says that he and Roger Taylor don't agree on much of anything... like 2 brothers. These 2 guys might disagree on many things as brothers do, but they also have that rare "sixth sense" of one another and unspoken communication like biological siblings do that permeates their 50-year relationship. And they love one another dearly. This year of 2019, Brian is 72 and Roger 70. As an acquaintance and fan, it concerns me what will happen with the one when the first passes.... beautiful guys. Genuine legends and world treasures.
memphis mark Sure, you know the old fool brian may. How was brunch with him today...has he done something about that ridiculous hair yet? Any chance you can upload the video of you and him playing golf weekly? Fuck outtah here, ya muppet.
Went through several of these over the past 3 hours, starting with Sparks and X. Really pleased to stumble on them. Now a new found fan of Brain May. What a wonderful guy. And hats off to them both for going vegetarian, being compassionate toward animals. Picking up some Queen vinyl later today as a result.
Big fan of both guitarists who come from very different musical approaches.Interesting chat and while Brian May and Steve Jones might at first glance be a bit of an odd pairing there was a good chemistry between them. Loved how it got really philosophical at the end as they discussed physics and the universe.
What a Class Act! And that's both of them. Legends that defined the 70's from their perspectives. It was great to be there, hear them and go along with them for the ride!
I had no idea Brian May was so interesting. And to be honest this is the first Jones interview that's gone longer than 10 minutes that I've watched from start to finish . I love a person who knows they know nothing.
This is my favorite episode of Jonesy's Jukebox, which is quite the statement. SPOILERS: It made me so happy that they followed a very serious discussion about science and the unknown (as a personal and universal concept) with the final thought being that Ian Hunter and Mott the Hoople are really cool. A+ video, thank you Jonesy for all the years of your great radio show (and video podcast). Please have Vic Godard on the show someday, Jonesy!
WOW Such a treat for a music lover, two of the most interesting people in music, Music exploded in my soul when "News of the world was released and never mind the bollocks, "Two of the Best albums ever recorded, and how they opposed each other musically and culturally, Two opposing ends, Now look, how they respect each other, Really brilliant video, Thanks
Great rock 'n roll talk!!! Observable + infinite universes, Drake Equations, interplanetary life and as Steve says most see god as "some bloke who looks like Father Christmas and lives in the clouds"..... BRILLIANT STUFF! LOVED IT...... Then onto Mott the 'Oople at 'Ammersmiff in '76 !! BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!! 2 guys from different rock 'n' roll worlds; but we're all brothers and sisters in ROCK!!
What a lovely chap, that Brian May. Jonesy, you're no slouch, either. This is a really interesting musical discussion between two London blokes who can look so far back and share lots of stories from the glory days of that 70s music scene and beyond!
I sang to Freddy back in 1988, I was working on a roof opposite his house. He was in his garden. We sang we are the champions, Freddy joined in ....a great memory.
I removed an ancient and original ’ Thomas Crapper ‘ style toilet pan in an old office in Hythe which had been owned by Lawrence of Arabia - and re fitted it in a bungalow a few doors up from Pennington Club...and my mate did his Lenny Henry impression to Tony Blackburn ( in 1st class ) on a train on the way to see Motörhead in Southampton. No Freddie in our neck of the woods unfortunately 🙄🐢
I adore the passion Brian May has about animals. He, as a musician, has always been ahead of others and I think his thoughts about animals will one day be commonly shared. Such an intelligent and expressive man. ❤
I don't think he quite rises to the level of Ginger Baker, Mitch Mitchell or Keith Moon, though. He's a solid drummer, no doubt, but I think Roger's value to Queen is as much more than "just" a drummer. Good drummer, GREAT singer, amazing songwriter.
An entertaining and interesting conversation. A lot has changed after all these years. Bands like Queen and the punk movement seemed worlds apart in the 70s. Queen managed to get through that period, but a lot of similar, lesser known bands didn't. The same thing happened for instance to Jazz musicians when Rock 'n' Roll broke through.
Jesus Christ! Brian May is "just past 70"?! Can't believe it! When we were kids, did 70-year-olds run about an electric stage playing loud rock and roll with long hair and designer pants? These oldies today!
Queen can cover all genres of music styles there's nothing that original band with Freddie Mercury couldn't do , haven't heard Brian May doing Motorhead covers but I bet it sounds uniquely different and Fresh
Dr. May maybe older but he seems youthful to me. Getting older, most people start to age on their hands, his arms and hands look youthful. He is always active with great music, projects, and his research/academics. I've always been interested in him going beyond his music, maybe because I share the doctor title with him. He makes me smile! 😊
I was at a Hunter/Ronson gig in the 80's when Brian came on stage and played along with them, and on another occasion Roger came on and played Kind of Magic ... Outstanding days.. loved Ronsons' sound n style ..as distinctive as Brians' sound ..
Brian May's Concern for the " Wellbeing Of The Animal kingdom " And In particular " Badgers Is Truly Touching " What A lovely Individual Total Respect!!!! From Adrian Browne 1965
Who keeps coming back to this interview given recent times? This is like the 10th time I've watched it! I'm not a hardcore fan of either's music but I just think this conversation is class.
You don't get it you IDIOT. The brilliance of Steve Jones is that he gives his guests space to talk ....unlike all these worthless interviewers who talk over their fucking guests all the time
I wish I had a father like Brian , who would talk to me about music, his time with Queen in the early days, animals rights, the universe. I really love all that! Both my parents are also 70 and they no longer talk about anything like this. Brian is a genius and yet so humble.
Totally engrossing and fascinating, listening to these 2 talents shooting the breeze casually. It has none of the pretentious crap of the modern kid interviewer these days. Feels almost like being in a pub, having a beer with these 2 fellas. :)
Re almond milk it's adulterated with sunflower oil which was a problem when it's on my list of exclusions. There are certain gluten free foods that contain potato starch. They taste great but they're on the list too.
I just rewatched the Great Rock n Roll Swindle. Listening to Jonesy discussing the origins of life, and the size of the universe is making me question my own reality.
Almond or cashew cheese/yoghurt is delicious. I'm vegan and I don't eat soy products. I used to be addicted to dairy but the cruelty of dairy/ meat industry made me quit animal products.
Anna Galesz Me too ever since 5 years ago 😊 I hate the aftertaste of milk and especially when I read the horrible realities of how animal milk is produced I gave up milk and now enjoying soy milk now.
Plants are living beings too; you are a hypocrite or a fool. Farmers laugh at people like you. Humanity has being drinking milk for millennia. What horseshit.
I’m not vegan but I can’t eat soy either. I used to like it but my body had a strange reaction to it. I’ll eat tofu now and then. Not vegetarian but I don’t need meat everyday.
I love that Steve just listens. You'll never hear him interrupt, and he doesn't get scared of a silent pause while he and the guest think. He is so good at interviewing.
Yep. He’s relaxed
Brian is the epitome of class & kindness & talent & intelligence.

Could not have made a better comment . My feelings exactly .
Hare Krishna yes they both have a Zen/Buddhist kindness and outlook on life and the cosmos 🕉👀🌙🍄⚡️❤️🌎🥋👍🌙👀🕉

He is always active with great music, projects, and his research/academics. I've always been interested in him going beyond his music, maybe because I share the doctor title with him. He makes me smile! 😊
we got to use the Bollocks/Queen mixing desk which was a great honour,now located at The Lodge studios in Northampton!
What make was the desk?
Aptly named studios for this pair...
I was at a Hunter/Ronson gig in the 80's when Brian came on stage and played along with them, and on another occasion Roger came on and played Kind of Magic ... Outstanding days.. loved Ronsons' sound n style ..as distinctive as Brians' sound ..
Brian May's Concern for the " Wellbeing Of The Animal kingdom " And In particular " Badgers Is Truly Touching " What A lovely Individual Total Respect!!!! From Adrian Browne 1965
Brian is such a good bloke, I would love to go for a few ales with him down the local.
That would be cool!
Ask him, he’ll probably say “yes”.
Who keeps coming back to this interview given recent times? This is like the 10th time I've watched it! I'm not a hardcore fan of either's music but I just think this conversation is class.
I could sit here for hours and hours and hours listening to them
I adore Jonesy's giggle!
Freddie getting into Sheer Heart Attack live is screamingly funny, love the TH-cam of the '77 Houston show.
I absolutely love these two guys, Brian May's wonderful!!!!
Is it just me, or does Brian May absolutely carry this interview?
No
not only you
You don't get it you IDIOT. The brilliance of Steve Jones is that he gives his guests space to talk
....unlike all these worthless interviewers who talk over their fucking guests all the time
Steve let's him talk. That's his style and thank fuck to. Far too often the interviewer doesn't allow guest's to talk & flow.
John Smith - Exactly. Thank you.
I love Steve's interviews. He lets his guests talk, listens and is interested on what the guest has to say, unlike Fallon or Kimmel.
I wish they got into whether or not Freddie punched Sid Vicious.
Damn, May looks great for a bloke in his 70s.
anarchy in the uk,label number is EMI 2566 and somebody to love by queen is EMI 2565,
mickslyness that’s pretty cool
OK
This is pure ASMR to me. Listening to Brian can really comfort a damaged soul.
I wish I had a father like Brian , who would talk to me about music, his time with Queen in the early days, animals rights, the universe. I really love all that!
Both my parents are also 70 and they no longer talk about anything like this.
Brian is a genius and yet so humble.
I recommend on PBS a show called "The Elegant Universe." It's all about String Theory, multiple dimensions, quantum physics etc.
god how can you see and hear brian smile and laugh without grinning yourself. its not possible my heart is so FULL i love this man so much!!
Totally engrossing and fascinating, listening to these 2 talents shooting the breeze casually. It has none of the pretentious crap of the modern kid interviewer these days. Feels almost like being in a pub, having a beer with these 2 fellas. :)
Jonesy is so laid back and the musicians he gets in have respect as the sex pistols were so ground breaking and different
Yes it's funny because if it had been a 'normal interviewer' Brian maybe would've walked out early.
azdownunder why?
Maybe not walked out, but he would have gotten visibly annoyed.
satchfan2010 What did Steve say to annoy Brian?
I think Brian was keen to talk about the book.
Sat with him on a flight decades ago. Absolutely lovely person. Gracious and humble.
thats was brilliant. definitely the most interesting interview and guest the big fella has ever had!!!
Re almond milk it's adulterated with sunflower oil which was a problem when it's on my list of exclusions.
There are certain gluten free foods that contain potato starch. They taste great but they're on the list too.
Roger Taylor and Bowie were really close friends from my understanding.
I just rewatched the Great Rock n Roll Swindle. Listening to Jonesy discussing the origins of life, and the size of the universe is making me question my own reality.
Jonsey is great as a interviewer
Great interview & great conversation. I would absolutely love seeing Jimmy Page, R.Blackmore or Tony Iommi chating with Steve.
Love this Interview. Great Brian May. ❤️
What a great conversation. Nikki Sixx ends his show and suddenly this pops up. Wonderful.
Almond or cashew cheese/yoghurt is delicious. I'm vegan and I don't eat soy products. I used to be addicted to dairy but the cruelty of dairy/ meat industry made me quit animal products.
Anna Galesz
Me too ever since 5 years ago 😊 I hate the aftertaste of milk and especially when I read the horrible realities of how animal milk is produced I gave up milk and now enjoying soy milk now.
Plants are living beings too; you are a hypocrite or a fool. Farmers laugh at people like you. Humanity has being drinking milk for millennia. What horseshit.
I only eat meat, eggs, and cheese. I have never felt better in my life. Eat meat and thrive.
I’m not vegan but I can’t eat soy either. I used to like it but my body had a strange reaction to it. I’ll eat tofu now and then. Not vegetarian but I don’t need meat everyday.
Brian May is such a chilled out person.
Why aren't people like him running the show?
