January 10















On January 10, 1949, RCA introduced the first 45 vinyl record.



ELVIS cut a great single today in 1956.


The first album by The BEATLES was released in America 50 years ago today.

 
Fifty?

 

SCOTT McKENZIE wasn't "Scott" at all- he was born Philip Wallach Blondheim on 1/10/1939.

He wasn't from San Francisco, or even California- Scott was born in Florida and grew up in Virginia and North Carolina.  

John Phillips of The MAMAS and The PAPAS knew about San Francisco- John wrote and produced the song for Scott McKenzie who toured with a latter day version of The Mamas and The Papas before his death in 2012.
