MNTB – Today in Music

I was searching around to see what musicians had my same birthday and found a bunch of sites that lists music related situations by day. So I’m starting a new series ‘MNTN – Today in Music.

Here’s the first one:

May 27, 1983: The Smiths were at No.1 on the UK independent chart with their debut single ‘Hand In Glove.’

May 27, 1977: The Sex Pistols single ‘God Save The Queen’ was released in the UK. Banned by TV and radio, high street shops and pressing plant workers refused to handle the record. It sold 200,000 copies in one week and peaked at No.2 on the UK charts
