1967, Cream gave us their second album, Disraeli Gears.

1984, The Rev Marvin Gaye Sr. was sentenced to a suspended six-year sentence and probation for the manslaughter of his son, Marvin Gaye. He later died at a nursing home in 1998.

1991, U2 scored their second UK No.1 single with 'The Fly', taken from their album 'Achtung Baby'.

The song was the first time we met Bono’s new persona "The Fly".

1999, Foo Fighters released their third studio album 'There Is Nothing Left to Lose', the album marks the first appearance of drummer Taylor Hawkins.

2007, Led Zeppelin's eagerly-awaited reunion concert in London was postponed for two weeks after guitarist Jimmy Page broke a finger. The tribute concert in honour of late Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun scheduled for 26 November would now take place on 10 December. More than a million fans applied for the 20,000 tickets available, which cost €141.00 each. Profits from the show would go towards scholarships in Ertegun's name in the UK, USA and the country of his birth Turkey.
