Amazon is taking some flak for their recent promotion of the Prime Video documentary “Rock n' Roll Icon: Mötley Crüe”. Instead of using a picture of the 80’s rockers to promote the doc, they instead chose to use a picture of faux-80’s rockers Steel Panther.
In the History of Rock in 1958 – Johnny Cash left his first record label, Sun, to sign a major-label contract with Columbia, where he would remain for the next 26 years.
In 1968 – The Doors started a two-week run at number 1 on the US singles chart with ‘Hello I Love You’, the group’s second US number 1. The Doors scored 8 top 40 US hits from 67-71.
And in 1975 – The Eagles also enjoyed their second of five Billboard number 1 hits with "One Of These Nights", and the album of the same name led the Albums chart.
