JUNE 19
TODAY IN 1968 THE ROLLING STONES SCORE THEIR SEVENTH U.K. NO.1 SINGLE WHEN ONE OF THEIR MOST POPULAR SONGS, “JUMPIN JACK FLASH”, HIT THE TOP OF THE CHARTS.
THE EDGAR WINTER GROUP HAVE THEIR FIRST GOLD RECORD TODAY IN 1973, WITH THE SINGLE “FRANKENSTEIN.” WINTER NAMED THE SONG BECAUSE OF HOW MANY EDITS WERE MADE IN THE ORIGINAL STUDIO TAPE. THE INSTRUMENTAL HIT ALSO FEATURES RICK DERRINGER ON GUITAR.
AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAMER ANN WILSON, THE STILL-AMAZING VOICE OF HEART, BORN TODAY IN 1950.
