Random Hand Jives

  • Johnny Otis has passed away at 90 years old. Considered the "Godfather of Rythm & Blues", Otis' most famous accolade is his hit Willie and the Hand Jive. But that isn't all-read more here.
  • Today is the anniversary of Alan Freed's death. Alan was the original rock and roll DJ but the payola scandal took him down. If you haven't seen American Hot Wax check it out-it's "loosely" based on Alan Freed.
  • Today is also the anniversary of Ozzy biting the head off of a live bat while at a Des Moines, IA concert.
  • Check out "If Album Covers Were Honest" on Cracked if you want a laugh.
