In 1967, on October 7, one of the most successful pairs in music history signed to DJM Publishing. Reg Dwight (Elton John) and songwriting partner Bernie Taupin were both under age 21. Their parents had to witness their signatures. John and Taupin met through an advertisement for a lyric writer in the New Musical Express. The pair have since collaborated on over 30 albums.
Izzy Stradlin quit Guns N’ Roses today in 1991. Guitarist Gilby Clarke replaced Stradlin. Stradlin had difficulty managing his newfound sobriety being around Slash, Matt Sorum, and Duff McKagan. He was tired of Axl Rose’s antics.
In 2004, BBC Radio 1’s airwaves turned blue when guest Elton John used the words f****ing, w**k, and t**s. This happened on Chris Moyles Radio 1 breakfast show in the UK.

The record label bosses at EMI recalled a vinyl anniversary edition of The Beatles‘ hit single “Love Me Do” on October 8, 2012.
