It’s the first Monday following the beginning daylight savings time. Mike is a big supporter -
It is also Pi Day – the ratio of a circle’s circumference to it’s diameter. You knew that. Didn’t you?
International Brain Awareness Week begins today.
Historic 101: On this day in 1950 the FBI began its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives List as a way to get the public's help in finding the nation's most dangerous criminals.
Music History: March 14, 2004 Thieves steal more than $300,000 worth of jewelry from the Las Vegas museum. The jewelry had belonged to one of Vegas’ most memorable entertainers. It was called: Elvis-A-Rama.
The 101 number one song of the day was the first British single to reach number one in America without making the chart in its own country. And for that there was a very good reason. It was never released as a single in Great Britain. Over there, albums were usually released with more tracks than their American counterparts resulting in enough left over material to create interim patchwork LPs. That was the case in today’s featured record which was on an album over there but on a different album over here where the decision was made to release it as a single and it was on top of the charts on March 14, 1965 for the Beatles --“Eight Days a Week.”
