On this day in 1970, what would prove to be the Beatles’ final recording session is held at EMI’s Abby Road Studios. The last song they ever played together was “I Me Mine”, which became the title of George Harrison’s autobiography a decade later.
Today in 1972, Pink Floyd begin two weeks of rehearsals in London for the Dark Side of the Moon Tour.
And there are two birthdays on this day in rock history – Led Zeppelin bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones turns 77 today…While Stephen Stills, of Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash, celebrates his 78th.
