Musical Milestones from this day in Rock & Roll history.
1958 - Eddie Cochran recorded "Summertime Blues," which was later covered by artists such as Blue Cheer, The Who and Rush. In the original recording, Cochran sang both the vocal and bass vocal parts, played all the guitar parts, and added the hand clapping.
1968 - Otis Redding's "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay" hit No. 1 about three months after Redding’s death, becoming the first-ever posthumous No. 1 hit.

1970 - Simon and Garfunkel were at No. 1 on the U.K. singles chart with "Bridge Over Troubled Water," the duo's sole U.K. No. 1. Only Art Garfunkel sang on the track.
