Happy birthday, Charles Mingus! (Born 1922). On 4/22/64 The Dave Clark 5 45 “Bits and Pieces” charts at No. 3 in England. On 4/22/67 the Pink Floyd 45 “Arnold Layne” charts at No. 20 in England. On 4/20/85 Stephen “Tintin” Duffy “The Ups and Downs” LP charts at No. 35 in England. On 4/21/84 Wang Chung “Points On The Curve” LP charts at No. 34 in England. And happy birthday to Robert Smith of The Cure (yesterday, on 4/21) – no idea how many candles on his birthday cake!
Yet another short trip to San Diego, CA – in fact, I was there for both a record collector swap meet and Record Store Day! It’s a nice place, I really enjoy going to San Diego – all the different stuff to eat and drink; just a different experience to Los Angeles county.
The swap meet was very different to an L.A. one; different dealers etc. And funky stuff awaited me, as usual!
