On this day in history.

Feb 15 1970.

The world of music changed forever, Black Sabbath's First Album was released. After watching Rosemary's Baby two aimless young chaps decided that people like to be scared. So they brought in Terence Butler and Bill Ward to complete the band.

The location still stands.

I can recall on 1010 CFRB, just before the noon news.
Taylor Parnaby up to about year 2009 would do an on this day feature called 'tattered little date book'.

It was a loss when he retired, and even sadder when he passed away earlier this year.

Wierd family connection to me
His mom was the United Church organist where he grew up in Orillia.
So every Thursday she would have choir practice, like every other church choir in Canada at the time.
I seem to recall his dad was a newspaper man and often worked late.

My mom, who was a few years older, would babysit "Hap', as he was known, on Thursday nights.
When he was too little to be by himself while his mom was out.

My mom died peacefully eariler this year.
