April 21
IN 1967, IT IS THE FINAL DAY OF RECORDING SESSIONS FOR THE BEATLES ‘SGT PEPPERS LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND’. THE TWO ITEMS THEY DID — A 15 KILOHERTZ TONE THAT ONLY DOGS COULD HEAR, AND A LOOP OF RANDOM SILLY NOISES FOR THE ALBUM’S INNER GROOVE — WERE LEFT OFF THE U.S. VERSION OF THE RECORD.
TODAY IN 1980 PETE TOWNSHEND RELEASES HIS SECOND SOLO STUDIO ALBUM ‘EMPTY GLASS’ FEATURING THE TRACKS “ROUGH BOYS” AND “LET MY LOVE OPEN THE DOOR”
AND IN 1990 PAUL MCCARTNEY PLAYED IN FRONT OF 184,000 FANS AT A SOCCER STADIUM IN RIO DE JANEIRO, CREATING A NEW WORLD RECORD FOR THE LARGEST CROWD ATTENDING A ROCK CONCERT.
