Sorry I missed yesterday. I was out of town. So you get a 2 for 1 today

June 24th


1999 - Eric Clapton parts with 100 of his guitars and generates over $5 million for his Crossroads Centre at Antigua, and alcohol and drug-dependency treatment center in the West Indies. Among the stringed beauties auctioned off is "Brownie," a 1956 sunburst Fender upon which he recorded his hit "Layla"; the instrument goes for a record-breaking $497,500. The previous record holder was an axe of Jimi Hendrix's that went for $320,000.

1998 - Johnny Cash returns to a Nashville stage and performs for the first time since has was stricken with Shy-Drager Syndrome the preceding October. Cash joins a surprised Kris Kristofferson, who is singing Cash's "Sunday Morning Coming Down" at "Witness History II," a tribute to Cash and Waylon Jennings at the Ryman Auditorium.

1998 - The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band starts a run of 12 European dates in London. Stops include Helsinki, Brussels, Paris, and Munich, as well as shows July 7 and 8 at the Montreux (Switzerland) Jazz Festival.

1992 - Billy Joel receives his high school diploma from Hicksville High School on Long Island, N.Y. He failed to graduate with his class in 1967 because of missed gym and English credits. The school choir sings Joel's song ``Summer, Highland Falls'' at the ceremony.

1944 - Jeff Beck is born in Surrey, England. He is a member of the Yardbirds from 1964-66. He is joined by Rod Stewart and Ron Wood in the Jeff Beck Group from 1967-69. He joins other rock superstars in the Honeydrippers, which has a No. 3 song, ``Sea of Love,'' in 1984.

1942 - Drummer Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac is born in London. The group's biggest hit is ``Dreams,'' a million-selling No. 1 song in 1977. Billboard ranks the group's ``Rumours'' as the No. 1 album of 1977; it tops the album chart for 31 weeks



June 25th

1995 - Pearl Jam cancels their current tour, citing their ongoing war with Ticketmaster as the reason.

1969 - Guitarist Mick Taylor makes his performance debut with the Rolling Stones in Rome. He replaces Brian Jones, who later drowns on July 3. Taylor leaves the group in 1975 and is replaced by Ron Wood.

1967 - The Beatles' ``All You Need Is Love'' is recorded live during a British TV broadcast. (Marianne Faithfull sings in the chorus.)
