Today in Classic Rock History on October 26th…

1999 Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young release “Looking Forward”, their first album together in 11 years and only their third studio recording ever.

1990 Neil Young’s fourth annual Bridge School Benefit Concert in Northern California features Elvis Costello, Steve Miller, Jackson Browne, and Edie Brickell.

1982 Clash frontman Joe Strummer disappears just as the band’s Know Your Rights tour is about to begin. It turns out to be a publicity stunt.

1981 Queen and David Bowie record “Under Pressure” in Montreux, Switzerland. Years later, it becomes the basis for Vanilla Ice’s career.

1980 Jefferson Starship’s Paul Kantner suffers a brain hemorrhage in the studio. After 15 days in a Los Angeles hospital he is declared fit to return to work.

1976 Chicago gets a gold record for “If You Leave Me Now”.

1975 Elton John closes his sold-out U.S. tour with a second night at Dodger Stadium before 55,000 fans. His set includes The Beatles’ “Let It Be”. At one point, the rocker and sports nut removes his overalls to reveal a sequined Dodger uniform. Elton was the first rock and roller to perform at Dodger Stadium since The Beatles in 1966.

1968 Johnny Rivers headlines the San Francisco International Pop Festival. Jose Feliciano, Iron Butterfly, Eric Burdon & the Animals, Deep Purple, and Canned Heat round out the bill for two days of shows at the Alameda County Fairgrounds in suburban Pleasanton, California.

1968 Smile, the group that would become Queen, makes its public debut opening for Pink Floyd at a London college.

1967 Manfred Mann begin recording an obscure Bob Dylan song, “The Mighty Quinn”. The band will complete it in sessions in November and December.

1967 Pink Floyd play their first U.S. show, at San Francisco’s Fillmore West, opening for Richie Havens and Big Brother and the Holding Company.

1965 The Beatles are made Members of the British Empire in a ceremony at Buckingham Palace presided over by Queen Elizabeth.

1964 The Beatles record “Honey Don’t” with Ringo Starr singing lead. They nail it in five takes. They also cut “What You’re Doing” as well as silly versions of Christmas carols for their annual fan club holiday single.
