The Rolling Stones - Midnight Rambler

This was banned from having any airplay across most of the USA because it related to the as yet unsolved Boston Strangler situation... if my memory serves me right.

This of course attracted even more attention to the song and the band!

The band members are now in their 80's and still touring and making records!

Everything this band did had a huge affect on world music!

Are The Beatles still a big selling band?

Yes, the Beatles are still selling albums and remain one of the most popular groups in the music industry, even though they haven't released new music in decades: 
 
 
 
  • Best-selling artists
    As of 2022, the Beatles are the best-selling artists worldwide, with 183 million units certified sales. 
     
     
     
  • Albums on the charts
    In March 2024, two of the Beatles' most popular albums were climbing the Billboard charts. 
     
     
     
  • 2020 sales
    In 2020, the Beatles were the biggest rock band, selling 1.094 million album-equivalent units in the first six months of the year. They also had the fifth-bestselling vinyl album of the year. 
     
     
     
The Beatles are considered to be one of the most influential bands in popular music history. They had a continuous impact on popular culture and the lifestyle of several generations.

A lot of young people have seen and know about Ozzy Osbourne to a degree but it's surprising how many didn't realise this was what he was all about.

This over fifty years later is still considered to be incredible and the most influential prog rock piece on the planet!

When younger musicians hear this it really hits the wow factor for them.

I would just call most of that rock, with the exception of Sir Elton. He's pop music.

I don't care what Keith and Mick say, Gram Parsons wrote this song for them.

 

Great song either way..
