MARCH 4 |
ON THIS DAY IN 1967, THE ROLLING STONES HAD THEIR FOURTH #1 WITH “RUBY TUESDAY” AFTER AMERICAN DISC JOCKEYS SHIED AWAY FROM PLAYING THE ORIGINAL SIDE A OF THE RECORD, “LET’S SPEND THE NIGHT TOGETHER”.
TODAY IN 1977, CBS RELEASED THE CLASH’S SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM, BUT ONLY IN THE UK. CBS IN THE U.S. REFUSED TO RELEASE IT UNTIL 1979. AMERICANS BOUGHT OVER 100,000 IMPORTED COPIES OF THE RECORD MAKING IT ONE OF THE BIGGEST- SELLING IMPORT RECORDS OF ALL TIME.
AND FINALLY, THE LATE CHRIS SQUIRE OF ‘YES’, WHOSE BASS PLAYING WAS A MAJOR PART OF THE BAND’S SOUND FROM THE BEGINNING, WAS BORN TODAY IN 1948.
