WRITTEN BY JACKSON BROWNE AND EAGLES BAND MEMBER GLENN FREY, WHO ALSO PROVIDES LEAD VOCALS, THE EAGLES RELEASE “TAKE IT EASY” TODAY IN 1972 AS THE OPENING TRACK OF THE BAND’S DEBUT ALBUM.
ON THIS DAY IN 1975, THE ROLLING STONES PLAYED LIVE ON THE BACK OF A FLATBED TRUCK AS IT DROVE DOWN 5TH AVENUE IN NEW YORK CITY. IT WAS THEIR WAY OF ANNOUNCING THEIR NORTH AMERICAN TOUR. STONES DRUMMER CHARLIE WATTS CAME UP WITH THE IDEA, AFTER WATCHING NEW ORLEANS JAZZ MUSICIANS, WHO WOULD PLAY WALKING DOWN THE STREET.
AND IN 2007 RUSH RELEASE THEIR EIGHTEENTH STUDIO ALBUM ‘SNAKES & ARROWS’ FEATURING THE SINGLE “FAR CRY”
