Spring Has Finally Sprung!

From FH Reader Chuck Buell (who was broadcasting on WLS Radio on The First Day Of Spring, Fifty Years Ago Today!)

It’s been a long cold Winter for many of us this year!

Last week's Colorado's"Blizzard of 2019" ...

Chicago's "Deep Freeze" of a couple of week's ago ...

Seattle getting as much snowfall in one day as it usually receives in one year ...

And the Nor'easters slamming the Upper Atlantic Coast.

If you've had your fill of Winter, then ~~~

Here it comes!  

Today!  

At 5:58 PM EDT!  

2:58 PM Pacific! 

The First Day of Spring!

So here, from Forgotten Hits' Feature Year, 1969, is our Special Theme Song for Today!

Happy Spring Day to you from me!

CB  ( which stands for "Chuck Brrrrr!" )


March 20th, 1969:  

John Lennon marries Yoko Ono in Gibraltar – they will begin their honeymoon five days later by staging a Bed-In For Peace at The Amsterdam Hilton Hotel.

Also on this date, David Bowie marries model Angela Barnett.  Most folks agree that she was the subject of The Rolling Stones’ 1973 hit “Angie.” 

#1 in Chicago on WLS and WCFL ... 
and sitting at the top of all three major music trade publications
(Billboard, Cash Box and Record World):

DIZZY by Tommy Roe

 

I think the worst of winter is behind us ... temperatures in the 50's and 60's for the rest of this and next week ... so the future looks bright (literally and figuratively!)

ENJOY THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING ...

From your friends at Forgotten Hits!
