DECEMBER 13
ON DECEMBER 13, 1966, THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE MADE THEIR BRITISH TELEVISION DEBUT ON READY STEADY GO! THAT SAME DAY, THEY RECORDED “FOXY LADY”, ONE OF THEIR DEFINING ANTHEMS.
ON THIS DAY IN 1986, BRUCE HORNSBY & THE RANGE HIT NO. 1 ON THE BILLBOARD HOT 100 WITH “THE WAY IT IS”. THE SONG’S REFLECTIVE LYRICS AND PIANO HOOK MADE IT A DISTINCTIVE TRACK OF THE DECADE.
AND ON DECEMBER 13, 1962, ELVIS PRESLEY LANDED HIS 13TH UK NUMBER ONE SINGLE WITH RETURN TO SENDER, A SONG ORIGINALLY FEATURED IN THE FILM GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS! AND ONE OF HIS MOST LOVED EARLY ’60S HITS.
