Title: Vice Squad Rock n Roll Massacre Post by: gunsnfnroses on January 29, 2010, 08:00:44 PM Vice Squad is the band
Rock n Roll Massacre is the song. The lyrics are about rock n roll casualties mostly from the 70s (Brian Jones, Janice Joplin, Jimi Hendrix) but there is one line in the song and I can't figure out who they're talking about. Any help here? "Bible-pusher's son was alright then For a backstreet Crawler the flight didn't end" Title: Re: Vice Squad Rock n Roll Massacre Post by: CheapJon on January 29, 2010, 08:07:32 PM huh, weird.. it seems it's about bisexual dragons having sex with trees while reading comics

"Bible-pusher's son was alright then For a backstreet Crawler the flight didn't end" It's about Paul Kossof, the lead guitarist with a rock band called Free and Back Street Crawler (1975). He died of drug related heart problems on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. His father David Kossof was an actor and became an evangelist after his son's death.

The Free song "All Right Now" was covered by Brian May and features Slash and Paul Rodgers (of Free).
