AUGUST 20
STEVE WINWOOD WAS NUMBER 1 ON THE CHARTS ON THIS DAY IN 1988 WITH HIS ALBUM ROLL WITH IT. THE SINGLE OF THE SAME NAME WOULD ALSO BE A NUMBER 1 HIT.
TODAY IN 1969 THE BEATLES PUT THEIR FINISHING TOUCHES ON I WANT YOU (SHE’S SO HEAVY) AND THEN WORKED ON THE FINAL SONG ORDER FOR THE ABBEY ROAD ALBUM. IT WAS THE LAST TIME ALL FOUR BAND MEMBERS WERE TOGETHER IN THE STUDIOS WHERE MOST OF THEIR WORK WAS RECORDED.
AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ROBERT PLANT. THE FORMER LED ZEPPELIN LEAD SINGER TURNS 77.
