Non-musical history for today: 1587 – Mary, Queen of Scots, is executed on suspicion of having been involved in the Babington Plot to murder her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I. She didn’t, but that didn’t stop Liz I. I know I talk about this a lot because my wife is a huge MQoS fan. Mary’s son, James VI (of Scotland) and I (of England and Ireland) avenged her in a way. When he took over had them buried in crypts across the hall from each other. Take that, Auntie Liz!

Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for February 8.
