Fly's photography studio, about six doors west of the O.K. Corral's rear entrance. Who's your huckleberry now!? Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for October 26. Recorded

Oh yeah... and Fred Dryer was Hunter in the NBC show, Hunter. Music history, album

Non-musical history for today: 1953 – Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 was published. If you know me, you know I'm not a fan of reading. It's a waste of my time that I could be doing something else. ADD and all that. But I did read this book. And, I enjoyed it. "It's a pleasure to burn."Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for October 19.

Non-musical history for today: 1888 – The "From Hell" letter allegedly sent by Jack the Ripper was received by investigators. It was sent along with half of a human kidney.

Of course, it's one of the greatest mysteries of the past few centuries and no one knows who the kidney came from, who sent it, or who Jack was. Fascinating.

Non-musical history for today: 1956 – The New York Yankees' Don Larsen pitched the only perfect game in a World Series.
