Music...any kind...let's go!

This day in music......March 21st.

1965, After 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' had held the No.1 position on the US singles chart for seven weeks, The Beatles started a two-week run at No.1 with 'She Loves You'.



1973, The BBC banned all teenybopper acts appearing on UK TV show, 'Top Of The Pops' after a riot following a David Cassidy performance.





1981, REO Speedwagon went to No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Keep On Loving You', the group's first top 40 hit and first No.1, a No.7 hit in the UK.



2004, Ozzy Osbourne was named the nation's favourite ambassador to welcome aliens to planet earth. The 55-year-old singer came top of a poll as the face people want to represent them to alien life. The poll of internet users was carried out following the discovery of signs of water on Mars. Ozzy won 26 per cent of the vote. A spokesman for Yahoo! News said: "As the world waits desperately for signs of alien life, we decided to ask our users who they thought was best suited for this most auspicious of roles. Ozzy is a great choice but I'm not sure what the Martians would make of his individual approach to the English language."
   


1950, Born on this day, Roger Hodgson, guitar, Supertramp, (1979 US No.6 & UK No.7 single 'The Logical Song').



1953, Born on this day, Robert Johnson, KC and the Sunshine Band, (1975 US No.1 single 'That's The Way, I Like It', 1983 UK No.1 single 'Give It Up').

That makes me happy.
 

You wanted "D" to delete it!  

I know Doc...glad I changed my mind. Deleting Chrysalis was what I really wanted anyway. Now Real-Eyez can be the sole proprietor.

Did you listen to the Stewie and her take of the take down? I flew a ton in the 90's southwest even had their credit card, a free round trip every year. That was always on my mind the cabin door.  If not in a rush sat in the back had all the coffee or tea I ever needed. A good place to BS.

Don't know where Aces lives, my first St. Louis, experience was,  Californian's pay good money for this sauna heat!    85' heat with rain and lightening and thunder storms! Loved those dancing lighting storms cloud to cloud to the ground. Never seen nature like that.

Evenin' LOTD! It is Saturday night and I have 4 bottles of champagne to keep me company...let the party begin!

Adele cover? That's a Cure song...apparently a cover of a cover...



Seeing Don Ho in Hawaii must have been something! Of course, in 1959 I wasn't even a twinkle in my daddy's eye...

One from Sir Elton...

I remember when I bought this album. I was in Klamath Falls visiting my dad. My sis and I went out for a walk to explore the neighborhood, and came upon a funky little record store. Van Halen II had just been released, so I bought it. Wore that album out...
