As Martin Luther King Jr. leads a group of 25,000 to the state capital Montgomery Alabama, and delivery the speech “How Long, Not Long” in 1965, four years later John Lennon and Yoko Ono stage a bed-in for peace in Amsterdam.
Not less important before that in 1942, Aretha Franling is born in Memphis, Tennessee. Commonly referred to as “The Queen of Soul” Franklin is one of the most honored artists by the Grammy Awards, with 20 Grammys to date. Respect, Baby I Love You, (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman, Chain Of Fools and (Sweet Sweet Baby) Since You’ve Been Gone were fine examples of her portfolio.

The Rocket man has been one of the dominant forces in rock and popular music, he has sold over 200 million records.
