August 16, 1977 is the date Elvis passed away. I was thinking the 17th, maybe I saw something dated to Europe or something, not sure where I got that from.

Johnny Cash's family condemn white supremacist who wore a Cash t-shirt at Charlottesville
    Harriet Alexander, New York
17 August 2017 • 5:51pm

The family of Johnny Cash have condemned a Charlottesville white supremacist who was a t-shirt bearing the singer's face, saying he would have been horrified.

"We were alerted to a video of a young man in Charlottesville, a self-proclaimed neo-Nazi, spewing hatred and bile," the family said, in a statement posted on Rosanne Cash's Facebook page.

Like Elvis, the Sun Records stuff was really a lot better than what came later on, late '60s at least. imo. Though, that music has its own charm.  I'm not sure if I ever saw this show, I think I saw it on one of the satellite channels once, Icons and Heroes or a channel like that.

@TomSea
One of the choicest finds in my music library is this box set of just about every piece of blues
the Sun studios recorded between 1950 and 1959 . . .

Birthday Related,

Maxine Brown, the "Soul of Harlem", singer of the Carole King/Gerry Goffin composition:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7iuI9Dssig

Per the other website: http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/born_today

(Apparently, there is also a Maxine Brown in the trio singing group, "The Browns" known for the "Three Bells" song. I think they were a family group)
Quote
1962, Ringo Starr made his debut with The Beatles at the horticultural society Dance, Birkenhead, England, having had a two-hour rehearsal in preparation. This was the first appearance of The Beatles as the world would come to know them: John, Paul, George, and Ringo.

http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/

That's something to think that within 2 years, really even a shorter time, they'd be the hottest thing around.

Also today in music:

* Singer Paul Jones leaves Manfred Mann as "Pretty Flamingo" starts moving up the U.S.
charts in 1966. His replacement: Mike d'Abo, who'd sing on the group's next top ten hit,
"The Mighty Quinn."

* The Police play their first gig as a trio at Rebecca's Birmingham in England, 1977.

* Liverpool names a street each for each of the Beatles, 1982.

It has to be one of my favorite doo wop songs and is not that well known. I do believe this was posted before on one of the birthdays.

Saw lead singer Tony Middleton perform this (with his current group) maybe 3 years ago...

On the topic of that movie "Bronx Tale", they also had this song on the soundtrack. I usually go with the original record version but they are so excellent here, I'll go with this:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXNZpJSvp2s

Original or live, another good song.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsQYNg_EKUY

Is it a bit like "Angel Baby" which Kathy Young also sings ? Though of course, Rosie and the originals did the original. Sometimes I wonder. To me, not too similar. Ballads?

Saw the new Bronx Tale play prior to its going to Broadway. Also saw Cleftones' lead singer Herb Cox (& his current group) perform 3-4 years ago.

The original:
