History Highlight:

Today in 2013, a Minnesota man was accused of pretending to be a member of Pink Floyd at a hospital and racked up as much as $100,000 in unpaid medical bills. Phillip Michael Schaeffer, 53, went for treatment April 20 and claimed he was Pink Floyd singer-guitarist David Gilmour and that he didn't have health insurance. The man was treated and released from the St. Cloud Hospital, Minnesota, but not before he signed an autograph for an employee's son.

1965 - Herman's Hermits started a three-week run at No. 1 in the U.S. singles chart with "Mrs Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter." Herman's Hermits recorded the song in two takes, and it features muted rhythm guitar by Keith Hopwood and heavily accented lead vocals by Peter Noone. The band never thought the track would be a single, much less a No. 1 hit. The song was written by Trevor Peacock, who went on to have a successful acting career and is widely known for playing the role of Jim Trott in the 1990s BBC comedy series, The Vicar of Dibley.

1971 - One of The Rolling Stones' biggest singles, "Brown Sugar," was released.

1974 - The Carpenters performed at the White House, at the request of President Nixon.

1977 - The Clash launched their first tour of the British Isles with a May Day concert at the Roxy in London. The 40-day "White Riot Tour" eventually wound up at London's Rainbow Theater where the audience went wild, ripping out seats bolted to the floor to create space for dancing.

1980 - The South African government banned Pink Floyd's single "Another Brick In The Wall" after black children adopted the song as their anthem in protest against inferior education.

"Uptown Funk", which topped the U.S. chart for 14 weeks, originally had six songwriters but is now credited to The Gap Band as well.
