Today on the VE
You could forget your mom’s birthday, or even your spouse….but I’ll bet you remember what record was born on June 1, 1967. By months’ end, Jimi Hendrix and Wes Mongromery had already reacted and recorded their unique interpertations of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club band” and “A Day In The Life.” In the 48 succeeding years, many inspired salutes have followed, and this week’s Vinyl Experience collects more than just the usual suspects.
