Mike Moran: Legendary Pianist Behind Beatles and Freddie Mercury's Barcelona

🎹 What do The Beatles, Freddie Mercury, Monty Python, and Ozzy Osbourne have in common? They all crossed paths with legendary pianist, composer, and producer Mike Moran — and in this episode, he shares with Rob Cass the untold stories behind those iconic names. From jamming with George Harrison and Paul McCartney to a wild party flight with Led Zeppelin, this conversation is packed with unbelievable memories from a career that helped shape British music history. 🎶


Mike takes us behind the scenes of his first session at Abbey Road Studios, his time with the Ian Gillan Band, and what it was like to lose Eurovision with a chart-topping hit. He recalls the night George Harrison invested in Monty Python’s Life of Brian, the day he got a call from Paul McCartney, and his studio adventures with Ozzy Osbourne, Nicko McBrain, and the Queen Tribute Concert crew. Oh — and yes, one of the stories features a piano... covered in blood. 🎤🎹🩸


Whether you're into rock legends, film scoring, or just love hearing how the music industry really works, Mike Moran brings a lifetime of perspective, humor, and insight to the table. This is Part 1 of our talk — and trust us, Part 2 (with Freddie Mercury’s personal assistant, Peter Freestone) drops next week. You won’t want to miss it. 👀
