November 18
* A version of Blueberry Hill - one of the most covered songs of all time - was released 54 years ago today by the New Orleans rocker who put the roll into rock.
* It's 1964 and the Supremes appeared - Gothic-style - on American show, Shindig.
* On the same Shindig show, The Righteous Brothers also appeared sing this song, which is a far-cry from their big hits.
* Is this post doo-wop pop group really the beginnings of Neil Young's Crazy Horse? And which member died of a heroin overdose on this day.
* It's the world's biggest bank robbery and drummer/singer Phil Collins is involved.
* We have the original movie version of Fiddler On The Roof as we celebrate the date of the revival premiere.
* Cab Calloway was one of the music's greatest characters, died today, and here he is shouting out about the delights of reefer.
* It's 15 years since the premiere of James Bond's Goldeneye, and here is Tina Turner's sensational promotional video.
* It would seem Bon Scott has become a piece of the AC/DC merchandise business as they release their boxed set with his songs...and more.
