January 25
Bob Dylan’s film, “Renaldo and Clara,” opened in New York and L.A. on this day in 1978. Dylan directed and starred along with Joan Baez, and his wife Sara. It includes footage of his 1975 Rolling Thunder Revue tour.
On this day in 1963, The Rolling Stones played at the Ricky Tick Club in London, their first gig with drummer Charlie Watts and bassist Bill Wyman.
And Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary” single was released today in 1969. It would be the first of 5 straight #2 singles in a row—they’d never hit the top spot.
