"Today's History Lesson...legends in their own time

History connects past events to the present and sets the precedence for the future. As with any historical account, emotions control the day as we recall, remember and reflect upon both happy and sorrowful times. It is through history that all is not lost...the memories remain.


George Herman Ruth, Jr., aka Babe Ruth: The King of Swing

Elvis Aaron Presley: The King of Rock 'n' Roll"

"Where there is music, there's life! Where there is life, there's music!" 

There is absolutely no separation. From the sound of the first morning yawn to night's last sigh, music is in the air, everywhere. It is the chirping cricket, a kitten's soft purr-r-r-r-r, a newborn baby's cry, the kitchen all a whir-r-r-r-r! When chores are to be done, the radio is on keeping everything in balance breaking the sound of silence.

It is the songs of yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Music = Life, Life = Music

If you love to listen to the radio (or CD player) in your car, you will love this day's tidbits of history. In fact, this will take you back to the days of good ol' rock & roll way before the invention of the CD player, so just think radio.  (Image: 1958 Rambler Ambassador Custom)
 
Today in Music History: July 27

1958 Fans of rock & roll music were warned that tuning into music on the car radio could cost you more money. Researchers from the Esso gas company said the rhythm of rock & roll could cause the driver to be foot heavy on the pedal, making him or her waste fuel.
