1977: For better or worse, this is the day that the discotheque, Studio 54 opens in New York City. Owner Steve Rubell has an all-star guest list for the event, including Cher, Mick Jagger, Debbie Harry, Donald Trump, Liza Minnelli, Halston, Margaux Hemingway, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Salvador Dali, Brooke Shields, and Robin Leach.
We’re not sure, but we think the “Disco Sucks” movement was started the very next day.
1968: Due to the recent assassination of Robert Kennedy, Steve Binder, the director of Elvis Presley’s upcoming Christmas special decides to ditch “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” as the closing number. On this day, he asks musical director, Bones Howe, to pen a “more socially conscious” song as a replacement.
The same afternoon, Howe writes “If I Can Dream.” Elvis likes it and the rest is music history.
