Love this piece by Jeff Beck.

Just sounds so sad, haunting and lonely.

On This Day in History...

The famous tower clock known as Big Ben, located at the top of the 320-foot-high St. Stephen's Tower, rings out over the Houses of Parliament in Westminster, London, for the first time on this day in 1859.

So how about a double-shot of the Beatles?

It's also the anniversary of the Johnstown Flood...

The South Fork Dam collapses on this day in 1889, causing a flood in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, that kills more than 2,200 people.

The Boss mentions the flood in the chorus of the following song, but the song itself is about brothers....1 good, 1 not so good.
"Man turns his back on his family, well he just ain't no good."

On this day in 1980, CNN (Cable News Network), the world's first 24-hour television news network, makes its debut. The network signed on at 6 p.m. EST from its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, with a lead story about the attempted assassination of civil rights leader Vernon Jordan. CNN went on to change the notion that news could only be reported at fixed times throughout the day. At the time of CNN's launch, TV news was dominated by three major networks--ABC, CBS and NBC--and their nightly 30-minute broadcasts. Initially available in less than two million U.S. homes, today CNN is seen in more than 89 million American households and over 160 million homes internationally.

Here's a fitting song:

Ha! I almost posted this song, but changed my mine and posted Dream On.

I like this thread. It's like our own radio station. Now we just need more contributions. Maybe someday it will grow so big that we can each do our own "shows" every day.

Also on this day.....
On this day in 1934, the Tokyo-based Jidosha-Seizo Kabushiki-Kaisha (Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. in English) takes on a new name: Nissan Motor Company.
Jidosha-Seizo Kabushiki-Kaisha had been established in December 1933. The company's new name, adopted in June 1934, was an abbreviation for Nippon Sangyo, a "zaibatsu"(or holding company) belonging to Tobata's founder, Yoshisuke Aikawa.
