January 5, 2024 Record of the Day

On May 26 in 1973, Deep Purple’s “Smoke on the Water” is released. The song is based on the true story of how someone had fired a gun into the ceiling of the casino at Montreux, Switzerland during a concert by Frank Zappa & the Mothers of Invention. However, record collectors prize “Hush” by Deep Purple more than their other hits. “Hush,” released in 1968 on Tetragrammaton Records is worth up to $400.00 with its picture sleeve.
