Today in Rock History with Chris DeCarlo

December 8 |  

On this day in 1980, John Lennon was shot and killed outside his New York City apartment. He was 40 years old.  

And on a lighter note, two rock and roll legends were born today. The first, the late Jim Morrison of The Doors, was born in 1943. 

And the late Gregg Alllman was born today in 1947.
