28-01-18 1956, Elvis Presley (with Scotty Moore and Bill Black), made his first National Television appearance on the Dorsey brother's "Stage Show". It was the first of six appearances on the show and the first of eight performances recorded and broadcast from CBS TV in New York City. After the success of their first appearance they were signed to five more in early 1956. 1965, The Who made their first appearance on UK TV show Ready Steady Go! To project the desired image, the hand-picked audience consisted only of teens dressed in the current Mod fashion. 1968, Jim Morrison of The Doors was arrested and charged with public drunkenness after harassing a security guard at a Las Vegas adult movie theatre. 1977, Pink Floyd's tenth studio album Animals entered the UK charts at No.2. The sleeve concept was that of Roger Waters, who lived at the time near Clapham Common, and regularly drove past Battersea Power Station. A view of the imposing but disused former power station building was chosen for the cover image, complete with massive inflatable pig suspended between two of the towers. 1978, The Fleetwood Mac album Rumours went to No.1 on the UK album chart, also a No.1 in the US. The album went on to sell over 45 million copies world-wide and spent over 440 weeks on the UK chart. # 1983, British Rock & Roll singer Billy Fury died of heart failure aged 42. An early British rock and roll (and film) star, he equalled the Beatles' record of 24 hits in the Sixties , and spent 332 weeks on the UK chart, without a chart-topping single or album. His We Want Billy (released in 1963, with The Tornados) was one of the first live albums in British rock history. Fury later played rock 'n' roller "Stormy Tempest" in the film That'll Be The Day along side David Essex and Ringo Starr. 1984, Backstage after a Motley Crue show in Buffalo, New York, Tommy Lee found out that his girlfriend has posed for the current issue of Penthouse magazine without his knowledge, after a fan passed comment on the pictures. Tommy punched the fan unconscious with one hit, Motleys manager Doug Thaler later convinced the fan not to press any charges. 1985, The recording took place for We Are The World the US equivalent of Band Aid at A&M Studios in Hollywood. Written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie the all star cast included Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, Bruce Springsteen, Diana Ross, Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, Daryl Hall, John Oates, Cyndi Lauper, Steve Perry and Bob Geldof. 1990, Paul Abdul started a 10-week run at No.1 on the US album chart with 'Forever Your Girl'. Abdul spent sixty-four consecutive weeks on the Billboard 200 before hitting number one, making it the longest time for an album to reach the number one spot. 1995, TLC started a four week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Creep' the group's first US No.1, it made No.6 in the UK the following year. 1998, Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher played a 20-minute solo gig at the King Head, an English pub in Santa Monica in front of 250 fans. 2005, English drummer and singer songwriter Jim Capaldi died of stomach cancer aged 60. He co-founded Traffic with Steve Winwood who had the 1967 UK No.2 single 'Hole In My Shoe'. Capaldi also had the solo 1975 UK No.4 single 'Love Hurts'. Capaldi also worked with Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and George Harrison. 2008, Madonna topped the list for the richest female musician, according to Forbes.com. Its first-ever list focusing on women in the music industry estimated the 49-year-old banked $72m (£36m) between June 2006 and June 2007. Madonna earned much of that from her Confessions tour - the highest-grossing tour for a female artist - earning $260m (£130m) worldwide. Barbra Streisand came second, with $60 million (£30 million) followed by Celine Dion with $45 million (£23.6), mainly from her recent concerts at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

I thought this would be a good thread to highlight any Local singers or bands that the music world may or may not know about. Artists that are slugging it out that you know, whether round the clubs or just trying to make a name for themselves. A band I would like to Highlight is the Oskar Braves. Lead singer David "Dov" Stevens is a good friend of mine as is his family. His sound is very distinctive as is his stage presence. Just last night he was at an 80th birthday party I was a dj at and I got him up on stage. His powerful voice belting out Tom Jones "I'll never Fall In Love Again". But that isnt his bands style, thats just the multi talent and range of Dovs vocals. Looking like Elvis and the lip to match, dov and band mates Conor Young , Andrew Davidson , Connor Marnie and Grant Allan know how to rock the joint. Their Biography describes them down to a t and highlighting their achievements : Oskar Braves are an explosive 5 piece alternative rock band hailing from the ancient capital of Scotland, Dunfermline. The band formed in 2016 after crossing paths on the Scottish gigging circuit in different projects and felt together they would be a good fit, they were correct. Wailing guitars, unique powerful vocals and powerhouse drumming all clicks together to give a mesmerising, unforgettable, raw live show.
Oskar Braves draw influences from the cool side of the 80’s and 90’s, from bands such as The Cure, New Order and Big Country as well as having contemporary influences such as The War on Drugs and The National. Oskar Braves pride themselves on their energetic and loud live show, surprising and stunning audiences across the country.
The name ‘Oskar Braves’ is contrived from the protagonist in Gunter Grass’ novel ‘The Tin Drum’ where Oskar refuses to conform to the norm. That’s exactly Oskar Braves’ approach to music as they continue to push melodic boundaries and write songs they would listen to.
With pedal boards the size of dining tables, you would be fooled to think there were a 10 piece band on stage. You’ll ask yourself more than once if a guitar really did make that sound or if there is a keys player hiding behind the amps (there isn’t. They aren’t that big yet). It’s clear to see a great deal of time and skill has gone into producing their euphoric sounds and perfecting their craft.
Oskar Braves have supported Catfish and the Bottlemen, Blossoms, Glasvegas, Embrace, Judas and Prides to name a few. The band also featured at Carnival 56 Festival, Silverburn Festival, EH6 Festival, Outwith Festival in Dunfermline and have been involved in 3 sell out shows at King Tuts Wah Wah Hut, Glasgow.
Oskar Braves were also nominated for Best Live Act at the 2017 Scottish Alternative Music Awards and embarked on a mini tour of Bavaria, Germany in October 2017.
The band is still relentlessly gigging as well as currently being in the studio recording new music which is set to be released in April 2018.
This Friday sees the guys support The Skids. Now to hear their music:

1970, John Lennon wrote, recorded and mixed his new single 'Instant Karma!' all in one day. It ranks as one of the fastest-released songs in pop music history, recorded at London's Abbey Road Studios and arriving in stores only ten days later.

1972, American gospel singer Mahalia Jackson died in Chicago of heart failure and diabetes complications aged 60. Known as the "Queen of Gospel Music" she recorded over 30 albums and became one of the most influential gospel singers in the world and was heralded internationally as a singer and civil rights activist.
1973, 'Superstition' the lead single from Stevie Wonder's Talking Book album became his second No.1 single in the US, 10 years after his first No.1 hit. Jeff Beck created the original drum beat while in the studio with Wonder. After writing the song, Wonder offered it to Beck to record, but at the insistence of Berry Gordy, Wonder himself recorded it first. Beck was instead offered 'Cause We've Ended As Lovers', which he recorded on his Blow by Blow album in 1975.
1977, The Clash signed to CBS Records in the UK for £100,000.

2009, Road Chef, the Watford Gap UK Motorway services operator, paid £1,000 at an auction for a collection of celebrity signatures, which were collected by former employee, Beatrice England. The book included signatures of Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, The Eagles and Dusty Springfield. The Blue Boar services as it was once known received so many famous guests in its 50-year history that Jimi Hendrix mistook it for a London nightclub as it was mentioned so often by his contemporaries.
2015, Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne were given a song writing credit on Sam Smith's hit 'Stay With Me', because of the similarities to his 1989 track 'I Won't Back Down'. 'Stay With Me' had been nominated for three Grammys, including song of the year - which honours the writers of the track. Petty's publisher had contacted Smiths publisher who made an out of court settlement.
