In the History of Rock in 1961 – The Beatles performed at The Cavern Club in Liverpool playing two shows at lunchtime and then again at night.

In 1966 – Jimi Hendrix made his TV debut on ITV's ‘Ready Steady Go!’. The Jimi Hendrix Experience also recorded ‘Foxy Lady’ on this day. The U.S. version listed the song with a spelling mistake as “Foxey Lady” and this is how it is still known among many U.S. fans.
