Some Music Trivia
*In 1957, Disc Jockey Al Priddy of KEX, Portland, Oregon, was fired for violating the radio station’s ban against
playing Elvis Presley’s rendition of “White Christmas.” After hearing reports that many U.S. radio stations had
banned Elvis’ Christmas album because of their shock over “the Pelvis” singing religious songs, DJ Allen Brooks
of CKWS in Kingston, Ontario, played the entire album and invited listeners to call in their opinion. Of 800 callers,
only 56 disapproved of Presley’s sacred music.
*Each KISS member represents a character. Simmons is The Demon, Frehley is The Spaceman, Stanley is The
Star Child, Criss is The Cat, and Carr was The Fox. Vincent briefly wore makeup with an Ankh design in his early
concerts with the group.
*” No Woman No Cry”, Bob Marley’s first hit was released as a single from his album, Live!, which was recorded at
the Lyceum in London in 1975. Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer left the group the year before this was released. They
were upset at the way Bob Marley was given top billing.
*Axl Rose [Guns ‘n’ Roses] used to earn $8 an hour for smoking cigarettes; for a science experiment at UCLA.
*Elvis Presley once entered an Elvis look-a-like contest in a US burger bar and only came 3rd!!
