On This Day in Music

On this day in 1969 Promoter Richard Nader puts on the first “Rock ‘n’ Roll Revival” concerts, with performances by Chuck Berry, The Coasters, The Shirelles, Sha Na Na and Bill Haley. Held at Madison Square Garden‘s Felt Forum, the two shows sell out, leading to a series of similar concerts and the emergence of the oldies format. #Rock #Music #History #Oldies #musicislife
