Posted by Lilly Duncan on

The week in music history brought to you by MusicGoldmine.com.

Just a couple of highlights from this week in music history!

JAN 31: Today in 1985, Foreigner was at #1 with the rock ballad “I Want To Know What Live Is”. It remains their biggest hit to date.

FEB 9: Sadly, Mary Wilson on The Supremes has passed away at age 76. She was a co-founder of the ground breaking all-female group. Wilson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with her fellow Supremes in 1988. RIP😢

FEB 10: Today in 1973, Elton John was at #1 with “Crocodile Rock”. It was his first trip to #1 in the US and certainly not his last!

  • Thank you very much for being a wonderful company that is interested in the education of the collector community instead of the size of their wallet. I love looking at your offerings and will buy from you when the right record shows up for me.
