Meet Ron Kublin. Producer, writer, world traveler and lover of music, like all of us! Here are the Fave 5 songs he brought to YTunes Shuffle.
The Band---”It Makes No Difference”
These three went on tour to sing back up with Bob Dylan and were quite often booed offstage because their fans thought Dylan sold out.
The Doors---”The Wasp (Texas Radio and The Big Beat)
They were the first band to have an album advertised on a Billboard. Elektra Records paid $1500 to promote their first album on Sunset Strip
Tennessee Ernie Ford--- “Sixteen Tons”
Tennessee was a First Lieutenant in the US Army Air Corps in WWII and flew B-29 Superfortress flying missions over Japan. He was also a bombing instructor at George Air Force Base in Victorville, CA.
The Eagles--- "Desperado"
The Eagles were the first band to charge over $100 for arena shows. This was in 1994 for the "Hell Freezes Over" tour and when fans paid the ticket price, other bands like The Rolling Stones started charging over $100 too!
Fleetwood Mac---"Dreams"
This was their only #1 hit in the United States. When founder, Peter Green, left the group, he declared money to be evil and gave it all away and then worked as a grave digger. LSD is attributed to this erratic behavior.
