Today in 1996, Geogre Martin, Beatles producer, is also knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.

On this date in 1995, sadly, we lose an amazing blues guitarist from Ireland, Rory Gallagher.

Today in 1980, Billy Joel’s “Glass Houses” album goes #1 on the album chart.

On this date in 1966 Capitol Records recalls The Beatles album “Yesterday and Today” because they deemed the album cover, “The butcher cover” as it’s come to be known, as inappropriate.
