Today is February 20 and it was on this day in 1967 in Grays Harbor Community Hospital in Aberdeen, Washington[108 Miles SW from Seattle], Kurt Donald Cobain was born.

it was on this day in 1981 the title song of the classic comedy movie "9 to 5" top the pop chart and back then became a song you can stop humming until it became annoying.

But also on this day 12 years later in 1993, Whitney Houston top the pop chart for the 14th week in a row with a song that became more annoying then "9 to 5" it was the song from that damn Bodyguard movie thankfully it was replace by anndor song of big time annoyed "A Whole New World" from that Aladdin movie which went on to win the Oscar for Best song in a movie that same year.

Also on this day in 1976, before the Internet, before blog, before Music video, before SPIN, before everything we were threaded to a major music event of Epic proportion when the rock band "KISS" yes that band placed there Footprint in cement in Front of the K.I.S.S. Amry at the Famed Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

WATCHA GONNA DO ABOUT IT – THE SMALL FACES STORY

Take four London lads, add a mohair suit and some Mod swagger, a dose of Cockney humour, a touch of music hall and some drug induced psychedelia and you have a band that made some of the most exciting and vibrant pop of the 60’s….

HOLLOWAY DREAMS: THE JOE MEEK STORY

Britain's premier independent record producer of the early 60s, Meek was equally renowned for his pioneering recording techniques and eccentric personality as well as for the futuristic sounds he created. This new three-part series – presented by Tom Robinson - marks the 40th anniversary of his death.
This is the story of a true original, record producer, sonic innovator and eccentric uncle to studio geeks everywhere.

MALCOLM MCLAREN’S LIFE AND TIMES IN LA
Tuesdays from 20th February 2004-2100
Post the Punk era in London, Sex Pistols legend, Malcolm McLaren visited Los Angeles on a promotional tour that should have lasted a few days, but he was “utterly and hopelessly seduced” by the city and ended up staying for four years. In this, a radio-movie, he tells a very personal and funny story, flecked with his own contemporary observations of the city. We hear how he was tracked down within minutes of his arrival, by the hounds of the LA movie industry, hungry for new blood and ideas.
