Today in 1964, The High Numbers got a rejection letter from EMI Records. Less than a year later, they’d get picked up by Brunswick Records after changing their name to The Who.
Today in 1969, Led Zeppelin II was released. Recorded at several studios while they were on tour, it was also their first album to hit #1 on both sides of the Atlantic.
And happy birthday to the late Leslie West, former guitarist and vocalist for Mountain born today in 1945.
