I’ve finally stumbled over the first Norwegian release since I started this project. I mean, there have been other releases, but they are not available on the streaming platforms that I use. And like I’ve mentioned before; I’m not rich enough to buy all the records I can’t find on the internet. But The Monn Keys will be the first Norwegian band to get some attention here on This Band Could Be Your Life.

John F. Kennedy, who’s probably the most well known president of the USA, took his oath on January 20th, 1961, and The Supremes signed with Motown Records on the 15th of January. Which is more interesting?
October sees the debut album of Joan Baez, and the start of a long and prosperous career. She was first noticed singing duets with Bob Gibson at The Newport Folk Festival in 1959, and it was this performance that helped her get a record contract at Vanguard Records.
Cassius Clay made his entrance on the boxing scene for real in the summer Olympic games in Rome, 1960. He knocked down all his competitors and brought home the gold medal. And he stayed on top of the world from that point on.
With releases from big names such as Frank Sinatra, Chuck Berry, and Sammy Davis Jr. one would think that it would be easy to have a good time while checking out their albums. Well, the joke’s on me!
You know, we are pretty lucky. We’ve been blessed with so much great music through time. But we’re also cursed. Stuck with terrible bands that never stops. That will forever be played on the radio. And that never seems to shut up.
