Tommy’s Coffee Break Calendar for March 8th

Classic '60's single! -- Classic '60's live show!! -- Classic cannabis story!!!

3/8/1966 (50 years ago today) - ...and this was just one song on an absolutely masterful double-album set: Bob Dylan records "Just Like A Woman" for his epic "Blonde On Blonde" release at Columbia Recording Studios in Nashville, Tennessee. The city makes more than quite an impression on him as the world is soon to discover...

3/8/1968 (48 years ago today) - Here's where that incredible version of "Crossroads" came from: Cream plays the first of two nights at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom; the shows are recorded with some of the performances making it onto the immortal "Wheels Of Fire" double-LP set. Clapton is on another planet at this point...

3/8/1973 (43 years ago today) - From "The Dog Ate My Homework" School of Excuses: Paul McCartney gets fined $170 when marijuana is found to be growing on his Scotland farm retreat. Macca claims some fans gave him the seeds and he really didn't know what they would grow into! Good one, that!
