A word about May 4


BMI Acoustic Lounge - Los Angeles: May 4, 2020 | Calendar | BMI.com

We remember May 4:

Ohio 1970:    We remember Kent State and the day that 100 National Guardsmen fired their rifles into a group of students, killing four and wounding 11It was very unfortunate.   In 1974, a federal court dropped all charges against eight Ohio National Guardsmen for their role in the students’ deaths.

From the movies:   Edda van Heemstra Hepburn-Ruston, a.k.a. Audrey Hepburn, was born in Belgium on this day in 1929.......she died in 1993..........a very elegant lady and movie star, from "Sabrina" to "Roman holiday".

1950's rock classics:  Gene Vincent recorded "Be-bop-a-lula" today in 1956......it sounded a lot like Elvis and sold 2 million copies.....

"Run silent run deep":  A great World War II Pacific theater submarine drama.....Clark  Gable, Burt Lancaster and Don Rickles......very intense movie....
