60 YEARS AGO TODAY:
12/8/65 - The Rolling Stones finished recording “19th Nervous Breakdown” at RCA Studios in Hollywood, California. In the UK, it was paired with The Stones’ version of “As Tears Go By,” previously a hit they had given away to Marianne Faithfull. Here in The States, The Rolling Stones had already taken their version of that tune all the way to #3 as their previous single release.
Also completed today was “Mother’s Little Helper,” a track that would be held back for a July, 1966 single release. In between, they would top the charts again (for the fourth time) with “Paint It, Black.”
Also on 12/8, Rick Nelson sings “Truck-Driving Man” and “I Catch Myself Crying” on tonight's episode of the “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet.”
