Somehow it's been 15 years since we started our Music History Calendar, which is a great place to find out what happened in music on any particular day. Today's (October 10) Event Of The Day is James Brown endorsing Richard Nixon back in 1972. Also on that day: Radiohead released their new album as a pay-what-you-want download (2007) and No Doubt released Tragic Kingdom.
Below are some of our recent interviews and features. At the bottom is the big
list of recently added songs.
