    Today, in Musical History, December 1st, 1976:

    The Sex Pistols go on a local, live-broadcast, early-evening British talk show - replacing Queen, who cancelled at the last minute.


    The interview went infamously, as the sleazy host, Bill Grundy - already drunk, at 6:00 in the evening - treated the Pistols with utter contempt, and encouraged them to "do something outrageous" while he baldly hit on half-his-age Siouxsie Sue, who had accompanied the band to the show -

    And the Pistols responded with obscenities, and mocked Grundy to his face.

     

    The Pistols instantly became the most notorious band in Britain, Grundy was fired a few days later, and punk rock was suddenly in the spotlight - and lunged at, it full force.

        Cover Of The Day:



        "Over The Hill", recorded December 1st, 1965, in Como, MS, by Mississippi Fred McDowell, and released on his album "Cotton Country Blues"

        Willy DeVille got a lot of mileage out of it; this version could be from Stockholm, in 2002. His studio version appeared on "Horse Of A Different Color".
