The Rolling Stones

OK, more 60's: On a day like today, July 12, 1962 (48 years ago!) this newly-minted rhythm and blues band played their first live show at The Marquee Club, a jazz and skiffle venue in London. The lineup included, among others, Ian Stewart on piano and Tony Chapman on drums. The rest is rock 'n' roll history!

Yesterday's answer: Elvis' "Mystery Train". Dan Rogers' posting: That one is a MYSTERY that TRAINs my mind to remember that the king was a country star, not just a rock'n'roll star. A good video is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpZn-2LhzCg where the King is singin' and pluckin' away! Just like eating fried chicken and watching trains go past. What a life. Thank you, thank you very much! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_eE0NPArEY
