Average White Band’s classic “Pick Up the Pieces” hits #1 today in 1975.

“.. The name of the band started out as an ‘in’ saying among us,” said bassist Alan Gorrie. “You know, we’d be listening to a track and say ‘not bad for an average white band.’ I guess it just stuck ..”

Joel Stein was a French artist of the 20th century. He studied at the National Higher School of Fine Arts and attended Fernand Leger's atelier in 1949, where he met the “Lettriste” group, the surrealist group and Francois Morellet. His works are characterized by research linked to geometric expression and mathematical systems. In 1960 he participated in the foundation of the “Groupe Motus”, of the “Centre de Recherche d'Art Visuel”, which would become the “Group de Recherche d'Art Visual” (GRAV). In 1961 the GRAV was presented for the second time, for which he made a film the following year. He also participated in several exhibitions at the Denise Renè Gallery in Paris and at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His works are located in many Italian and foreign museums, galleries and collections.

It’s a great day in music history, as Bowie releases “Young Americans” 51 years ago today — his first US hit.

Of the song, he said: “No story. Just young Americans. It’s about a newlywed couple who don’t know if they really like each other. Well, they do, but they don’t know if they do or don’t.”

The Police - King Of Pain

The Police were releasing songs when I was living in France and I missed some of their hits. Years later, I heard this song in a bar and I instantly liked it.

Go-Go’s release “Head Over Heels” as a single 42 years ago today. 🎂

“That was the beginning of the end, that album," said Belinda Carlisle. It has a “cheerful melody” — but also “captures the darker side of fame. I had an appreciation for the lyrics then, but not like I do now.”

Loverboy’s Paul Dean turns 80 today.

Of “Working for the Weekend,” he said: “.. unlike us part time musicians, .. our fans are still .. working their butts off, waiting for that 5 o’clock .. And then there they are, every time we come into town .. ready to rock. It’s definitely a Call to Action.”

“Losing My Religion” turns 35 today. 🎂

“If I ever had an ambition,” Michael Stipe once said, “it might have been to have a song of the summer — and ‘Losing My Religion’ became R.E.M.’s song of the summer. .. That was thrilling.” 🎸

‘New York's City Hall has been an important part of the city's civic life for centuries. …here in the lower left of the painting, the building currently functions as a governmental office for city representatives. The building itself was designed by Joseph Mangin & John McComb, & the cornerstone was laid in 1803. The triangular park surrounding the building was used throughout the 19th & 20th century for countless important gatherings & events. Now, it is home to many monuments as well as the famous Jacob Wrey Mould fountain, which was originally constructed in 1871. In 1966, the City Hall building was designated a city & national landmark, & in 1999 the park was fully restored... City Hall Park & its [surroundings] are depicted here in quintessential Wiggins' fashion. A snowy winter's afternoon creates a gray sky as trees, grass, & concrete becomes covered in the blizzard's fall.’ https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/guy-carleton-wiggins-american-1883-1962-city-hall-64-c-11b4d6fa05

Phil Collins’ “No Jacket Required” turns 41 today. 🎂

“Sussudio”, he said, was a good “example of improvising lyrics.” While laying down tracks in the studio, “I started to sing .. and this word just came out. .. I was originally gonna replace it but .. the rhythm of the word felt so good.”
