1967: The Beach Boys announce their intention to scrap their highly anticipated Pet Sounds followup, Smile. After decades of imagined Smile albums, assembled from bootlegs and released recordings, founder and resident genius Brian Wilson finally releases a finished version of the project in 2005. oldies.about.com/od/oldieshistory/a/may2.htm |

1965: Ed Sullivan breaks a vow he made the year before and books The Rolling Stones back on his long-running CBS variety show -- but not before keeping the band in the studio all day, in order to keep from inciting the fans. The bands performs four songs: "The Last Time," "Little Red Rooster," "Everybody Needs Somebody To Love," and the instrumental "2120 South Michigan Avenue." Sullivan was quite the despot, wasn't he? I think the next time the Stones were on the show, he refused to let them sing "Let's Spend The Night Together." They had to change it to "Let's Spend Some Time Together." I guess if you're just spending some time together, you can't do the horizontal tango.  |
