SEPTEMBER 10
ON THIS DAY IN 1988 GUNS N’ ROSES SCORE THEIR FIRST AND ONLY U.S. NO.1 SONG WITH “SWEET CHILD O’ MINE”. THE SONG IS FROM THEIR DEBUT ALBUM ‘APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION’ AND RELEASED AS THE ALBUM’S THIRD SINGLE.
TODAY IN 1991 NIRVANA RELEASE THE SINGLE ‘SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT’. THE UNEXPECTED SUCCESS OF IT PROPELS THEIR ALBUM ‘NEVERMIND’ TO THE TOP OF THE CHARTS AT THE START OF 1992.
AND TODAY MARKS BIRTHDAY #74 FOR AEROSMITH FOUNDING MEMBER, LEAD GUITARIST AND ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAMER JOE PERRY.
