1961: It was Saturday on this day in 1961 and a customer named Raymond Jones entered the Liverpool record store of Brian Epstein. Jones is looking for a copy of “My Bonnie,” a record cut by a local rock band known as The Beatles, yet available only as an import (as The Beatles cut the record in Germany).
Intrigued that a local band could have a German record, Epstein decides to investigate further. After learning that the band performs regularly at the Cavern Club, Epstein enters that famous “cellar full of noise,” likes what he sees (apparently, liking John Lennon, in particular) and offers to manage them.
1967: A group of defiant teenagers dance that decadent (and totally outdated) American dance, The Twist, in Moscow during the Communist Party’s big May Day celebration. The dance had been banned by the Soviet Ministry of Culture.
When it comes to the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ronald Reagan gets a lot of the credit, but we all know Rock & Roll did most of the work.
