They invented the internet...ha.
I think---Sex, Drugs and Rock and roll!!
They were the first act to have a concert broadcast on the internet - in 1994.
Also, the first band to use corporate sponsorship - in 1981 (Jovan, I think)
The only act to have number one albums in five different decades. They topped the charts in the UK in every decade since the 60s - and had ABB sold 11 more copies in it's first week in 2002, theyd have had chart toppers in SIX decades.
Fairly sure that Mccartneys Run Devil Run promo show at the Cavern was the first in 1999,if it can be called a legit gig that is.

I ment a logo that represents the band not a record label. Logos for record labels have been around sice the beginning like the RCA Victor dog.

Nope, a popular thing to do among country players in the late 60's. And when Fender released the Custom and Deluxe Tele in early '72, Keith's Tele's still had the single coil in the neck position. History now has it that Keith popularized it and triggered Fender to provide a Tele with a bucker in the neck, but this history isn't true.

I've often wondered about that particular sound on this track . You're right ! It sounds like the Brian May . I wonder if Mick Taylor came up with it . How do they get this cool sound ?Quote
