BEATLES BEAK UP ANNOUNCED ON THIS DAY

BEATLES MAGAZINE: PAUL ANNOUNCED THE BREAKUP OF THE BEATLES ON THIS DAY IN 1970

(FOXNEWS) – The short but winding road that made the Beatles
the greatest  recording act and
pop-culture sensation of all time
ended publicly on this day in history, April 10, 1970. 

Paul McCartney announced a "break with the Beatles" in press
materials that accompanied the scheduled release of his first
solo album a week later (below).

His announcement confirmed months of rumors about the
band’s dissolution.

"Personal differences, business differences, musical differences,
but most of all because I have a better time with my family,"
McCartney said in the statement.
 



OTD 1970: Paul McCartney's debut solo album, McCartney, was released on Apple Records.

NEW YORK (AP) — The Rolling Stones plan to release what
they’re calling their "ultimate live greatest hits album," with
appearances by
Lady Gaga, Bruce Springsteen, Gary Clark Jr.
and The Black Keys, early next year.

"GRRR Live!" contains songs recorded live on Dec. 15, 2012,
at Newark, New Jersey’s
Prudential Center. That night saw
guest appearances by The Black Keys ("Who Do You Love?"),
Clark and John Mayer ("Going Down"), Lady Gaga ("Gimme
Shelter"), Mick Taylor ("Midnight Rambler") and hometown
hero
Bruce Springsteen ("Tumbling Dice").

Shown on pay-per-view in 2012, the concert has not otherwise
been available to fans until now.

It also features some of the band’s greatest hits, including "It’s
Only Rock ‘n’ Roll (But I Like It)," "Honky Tonk Women," "Start
Me Up," "Sympathy For the Devil" and "(I Can’t Get No)
Satisfaction."

DYLAN DEBUT ALBUM RELEASED IN 1962

Bob Dylan’s  debut studio album was produced by Columbia talent
scout
John H. Hammond, who had earlier signed Dylan to the label,
a decision which was at the time controversial. The album primarily features folk standards, but also includes two original compositions, "
Talkin’ New York" and "Song to Woody". The latter was an ode to Woody Guthrie, a major influence in Dylan’s early career.

The album did not initially receive much attention, but it achieved
some popularity following the growth of Dylan’s career, charting
in the UK three years after its release, reaching #13.
