Non-musical history for today: 1865 – U.S. President Abraham Lincoln was shot in Ford’s Theatre by John Wilkes Booth; Lincoln died the following day. Abe and his wife were watching the play, Tom Taylor’s “Our American Cousin.” It reminds me of the joke, and not to make light of the death of President Lincoln, “other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?” I’ll see myself out now.

Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for April 14.

Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty Plaza.
