40
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:43.960
It's one of the deadliest single building fires in US history.

00:02:55.240 --> 00:03:02.159
was officially formed the original USSR. It contained Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Armenia,
45
00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:05.039
and Azerba Khan. Yeah, they were just getting started. They
46
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:07.599
ended up with fifteen countries. Nah, most of those countries
47
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:09.919
didn't want to be a part of it. Nineteen twenty

52
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.439
this is really morbid, but I guess it's good news
53
00:03:26.439 --> 00:03:29.639
in a way. The Tuskegee Institute, they reported that nineteen

00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:56.599
ever a form in the Atlantic Ocean. Now Zeta had
63
00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:58.960
waited two days, it would have been the earliest tropical

00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:00.759

Larry Little Town, flirt Hey Little Girl. He started out
87
00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:39.240
in nineteen sixty one, but by nineteen seventy his career
88
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:41.079
was in shambles. Yeah, as due to the fact he
89
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:43.480
was just a major alcoholic. But by the eighties he
90
00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:45.800
had started to get himself sober and his career really
91
00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:48.879
started to take off again. Then, when Roy Orbison died,
92
00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:52.000
he was singing for the supergroup The Traveling Wheelbearers. Yeah,
93
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.399
the Traveling Wheelbearers. They named Del Shannon to take Roy
94
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:55.480
spot as their lead singer.
95
00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:56.000
Now.
96
00:05:56.040 --> 00:05:57.360
In a couple of weeks before they went in to
97
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.079
record their first album, Del, he decided to use a
98
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:02.920
rifle of commit suicide. It's fifty five years old. He
99
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:04.839
was married to his second wife. He had three children
100
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:08.040
from his first wife.
101
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:11.800
Mist.
102
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:22.000
And with the Monkeys were Too Business.
103
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:29.879
Singing the lead guitarist for the Monkeys was Michael Natesmith.
104
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:32.600
He was born in Houston, Texas in nineteen forty two.
105
00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:34.319
Now he could play the guitar when he got the
106
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.120
gig with the monkey. See, none of the other monkeys
107
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:38.639
could play their instruments when they started out. Nate Smith
108
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:41.240
is the one who wore the wool hat. Yeah, I see.
109
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:42.920
When he was going to audition for the monkeys, he
110
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:44.759
rode his motorcycle and so he put the wool hat
111
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.560
on to keep the hair, his hair out of his eyes.
112
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:48.759
Then he forgot to take it off during the audition.
113
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:52.120
Well work, the producers liked it. When he was thirteen
114
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:56.079
years old, his mom she inmitted liquid paper, started a company,
115
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:59.000
sold a forty eight million dollars. So Michael, yeah, he
116
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:01.639
wasn't a struggling artis. He had three children from his
117
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:03.480
first wife, then he had a child from a flame
118
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:06.360
divorce two more times. Died from heart failure in twenty
119
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:08.639
twenty one at seventy one years old. You know what,
120
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:10.319
let's keep monkeying around.
121
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:21.399
Cheer bje.
122
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:32.360
That was Davy Jones singing for the monkeys. Davy he
123
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:35.439
was born in Manchester, England, in nineteen forty five. Now
124
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:39.279
sometimes timing is everything now. Shortly after the Monkeys hit
125
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:42.279
another British singer named Davy Jones. He started to hit also,
126
00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:45.759
but since the Monkeys hit first, David he got to
127
00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:47.720
keep his name. The other Davy Jones he had to
128
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:50.639
change his He changed it to David Bowie. Monkeys they
129
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.160
sold over seventy five million records. Some songs that Davy

185
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:37.120
heard the phrase bringing home the bacon well started in
186
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:40.039
England in the twelfth century. See churches. They would award
187
00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:42.840
a whole side of bacon to any man who would
188
00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.120
swear to God that he and his wife had not
189
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:47.639
argued in the past year. So if a guy brought
190
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:50.120
home the bacon, he was considered a great husband and
191
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:53.600
