JANUARY 24
TODAY IN 1980, TO ADVERTISE PINK FLOYD’S UPCOMING WORLD TOUR FOR THEIR ALBUM ‘THE WALL’, A BLANK BILLBOARD ON THE SUNSET STRIP IS GRADUALLY COVERED UP EACH DAY WITH A BRICK UNTIL AN ENTIRE WALL IS BUILT, SLOWLY REVEALING THE INSIDE SPREAD AND TITLE OF THE ALBUM.
IN 1995 VAN HALEN RELEASE THEIR 10TH STUDIO ALBUM, ‘BALANCE’ FEATURING “CAN’T STOP LOVIN’ YOU.”
BEST KNOWN FOR SONGS SUCH AS ‘WEREWOLVES OF LONDON’, AND ‘LAWYERS, GUNS AND MONEY’ THE LATE WARREN ZEVON IS BORN ON THIS DAY IN 1947.
