#cream #wheelsoffire #60srock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #ericclapton #gingerbaker #jackbruce June 14, 1968 ~ Cream release their third album. It's a double album -- one disc live, one disc studio. It's the first platinum selling double album ... ever. It encapsulates the essence of Cream perfectly: Disc 1, was in the studio and Disc 2, Live at the Fillmore. It's #205 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
#marychapincarpenter #stateoftheheart #folk #country #music #musicsky #musiciansky #americana MCC releases #2 on June 13, 1989 ... her breakthrough album that bridged the gap between Washington D.C.'s folk scene and Nashville's mainstream country rock. She becomes one of the definitive voices of country and a member of the famous "Class of '89" -- led by Garth, Clint, Alan and Travis. Beyond the singles ("Never Had It So Good," "Something of a Dreamer," "Quittin' Time," and "How Do," "This Shirt" remains a fan fav thirty years later.
#bbking #ericclapton #ridingwiththeking #blues #bluesrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky The album brings together two of the most influential guitarists in the history of rock and blues -- the King of the Blues and Slowhand. Yea, the album was a commercials smash -- double platinum and winning a Grammy -- but it was also a personal project for Clapton who had wanted to record with his idol ever since they met at the Cafe au Go Go in New York back in '67. Urban legend is it was that show that emotionally convinced Clapton his move from the Yardbirds earlier, whom he thought were abandoning their blues background for whatever the hell they were after, was the right one.
#TheGratefulDead #Workingmansdead #70srock #countryrock #folkrock #jerrygarcia #bobweir #roberthunter #rootsrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky Think this through with me ... The Dead release their 4th album on June 14, 1970. It come at a time when some decisions needed to be made -- the band was dealing with some heavy debt and the 70's music landscape was changing by the minute. They traded their trippy, sonic stuff for some acoustic-driven folk and country rock -- and hit it out of the park. Even the album cover -- that iconic shot of San Francisco's Mission District captured the blue collar vibe. It's #409 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and is a must (along with its companion, American Beauty) in any collection.

#bonjovi #crush #jonbonjovi #richiesambora #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #hardrock #poprock The comeback album for Bon Jovi is released June 13, 2000. After five years away, the album helped reach a whole new generation of fans while bringing the older ones along in style. "It's My Life" was the monster single that became one of the band's most successful ever. "Tommy & Gina" make an appearance and so does Richie's talk box. The album earned Bon Jovi their first ever Grammy nod for Best Rock Album and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group.
