1973: The nationally syndicated radio concert series The King Biscuit Flower Hour premieres, featuring Blood Sweat and Tears, the Mahavishnu Orchestra, and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Good show. I listened to it a lot as a youngster.  oldies.about.com/od/oldieshistory/a/february18.htm |

1964: While vacationing in Miami during their first trip to America, the Beatles engage in a photo shoot with heavyweight boxer Cassius Clay, better known later as Muhammed Ali. Clay: "You guys got to be making a lot of money. You ain't as dumb as you look." John Lennon: "No, but you are." That night the group visits a local drive-in to watch the new Elvis film Fun In Acapulco.
Actually, Ali wasn't dumb then, but he's pretty brain dead now, from all that head pounding.

Our local FM underground station used to carry King Biscuit.
1973" Wow! Elvis the karate kid!
Happy birthday Yoko Ono, you little songbird you! Despite all the jokes, she's a very highly regarded figure in the international avant-garde art world.
