B i r t h d a y s :
It was “Like No Other Night” when Joey Dee (1940), Frank Beard (ZZ Top, 1949) and Donnie Van Zant (.38 Special, 1952) were born.
Facts
Fats Domino hit number 1 on the U.S. R&B singles chart for the first of 11 weeks in 1955, with “Ain’t It a Shame” (also known as “Ain’t That a Shame”). The song would peak at the bottom of the top 10 on the pop charts, but would be forever identified as a classic rock ’n’ roll song.
Janis Joplin played her first concert after joining Big Brother and The Holding Company in 1966. The following year, they gained popularity with songs like, “Bye Bye Baby,” “Blind Man” and “Down On Me,” from their first Big Brother and The Holding Company album.
Marc Bolan placed an ad in Melody Maker in 1967, looking for some bandmates. It read, “Freaky lead guitarist, bass guitarist and drummer wanted for Marc Bolan’s new group. Also any other astral flyers like with cars, amplification and that which never grows in window boxes.” OK. Steve Took and Ben Cartland answered and joined the band. They would release their first album a year later. It’s full title was, My People Were Fair and Had Sky in Their Hair But Now They’re Content to Wear Stars On Their Brows.
Bo Diddley appeared at a rock ‘n’ roll revival concert in 1971, at Madison Square Garden in New York. It was officially the sixth 1950s Rock and Roll Revival Concert to be held. Diddley would return for several more of these concerts over the years. His album, Another Dimension, released later in the year was not one of his best, so he continued playing live to pay the bills.
In 1976, AC/DC headlined their first concerts in Scotland, where several of the members were born. Their U.S. record company had just reissued the High Voltage album, made up of tracks from the original High Voltage LP and their second release, TNT.
Barry White received a message from above during one of his 1996 concerts. The “baritone of love” was performing at an outdoor concert in Boston when an airplane presented him with instructions to call a local radio station. White finished the show and then phoned the two DJs responsible for the $1800 message, and granted them an interview. The Icon is Love album from 1994 was a huge comeback for White, whose previous success came mostly in the ’70s with ballads of seduction like “Can’t Get Enough of Your Love, Babe” and “You’re the First, the Last, My Everything.”
FIRST OFF I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU, AND ALSO THANK YOU TO EVERY ARTIST HERE AT MUSIC NATION, I APPRECIATE YOU ALL AND I AM A FAN OF YOU ALL ALSO. I LOVE ROCK AND COUNTRY AS WELL AS ELECTRONIC AND POP, R & B, HIP HOP, THE SONGWRITERS. WE ALL HAVE AN EXTREMELY EXPRESSED TALENT THAT WE DISPLAY THROUGH THE MUSIC, AND IN A WAY, WE ARE UN-TOUCHABLE AND UN-BEATABLE. NO ONE IS BETTER THAN ANYONE, WE ARE JUST GREAT AT WHAT WE EACH AS INDIVIDUALS DO, AND THAT IS MAKE MUSIC.
Hi Flick,
I wanted to take this opportunity to wish you the best in this competition but you are not in it? I am conditioned to vote thanks to Music Nation, so here is my Pavlov vote (not as I cannot vote for you) because they just rang the bell, I love your music, and I am salivating. Is it lunchtime yet? Have a great weekend!!!! Mark
