It’s National One-Hit Wonder Day! And one of the greatest of them all was “Angel Baby” by Rosie and the Originals, written and sung by 15-year old Rosalie "Rosie" Hamlin. One of John Lennon's favorites, like many One-Hit Wonders there’s a great story behind it.

Rosie and the Originals Put National City on the Map
The majority of rock historians agree that rock ‘n’ roll hit a dry spell between 1960 and 1962. The charts told the story: leather-clad rockers were out, acne-free boys and girls were in. There are se...

Is this the Byrds? Or R.E.M.? No it's the Beau Brummels, a San Francisco band who's first album came out a couple of months before the Byrds' debut and features the great Sal Valentino. Their later album "Bradley's Barn" should be heard before you die.

One of my favorite one hit wonders. An early San Francisco group with the (rare for the time) female drummer Jan Errico, formerly of the Vejtables. It's a song Stephen Stills wrote for Buffalo Springfield, arranged here by SMiLE lyricist Van Dyke Parks.

For those who grew up in the 1960s/'70s, Trump's 1st week was especially painful and disorienting. His dictates were an all-out assault on the civil rights wins of that era, from Selma to Stonewall, ripping up the narrative of our lifetimes.

Children of the 1960s watch in pain as the story of our lifetime is erased
For boomers, the rapid reversal of 1960s-era gains for civil rights, women, LGBTQ, etc., has unraveled the story of our lifetimes.
