Myth/Legend #1: Robert Johnson was a blues musician, it is said that he sold his soul to the devil so he can become the greatest musician for blues out there. With the exchange he did, Robert was able to create the blues that made him so famous. He claims it was a large black man (aka the devil) who he met at midnight, tuned his guitar, played some songs, and then gave it back to him.
Myth/Legend #2: Ozzy Osbourne is known for his wild life and drugs/ alcohol addiction, it has been said that he likes to bite off the heads of small animals like doves or bats. Their plans were to release doves into the air to get the attention of people but when no one was looking he decided to take a dove and bite its head off then spit it out. Security came and removed him from the place, Ozzy still had blood dripping down his lips and then he bit another doves head off. The bat issue is something Ozzy would be haunted for the rest of his life. He and Sharon did it for publicity and also he was always drunk and taken over by the drugs he used.
Myth/Legend #3: The image of the group walking across the street was created by McCartney, it was taken on August 8th, 1969. They walked across the street in a single line with John Lennon leading then Ringo Starr and after Paul McCartney and ending with Harrison. Paul was the only one barefoot in the shoot. The fact that he was not wearing shoes while taking this photo, when you listen to it one of the song played backwards insisting that he died in a car accident and people started to believe in that.
Myth/Legend #4: In 1965 at a concert called Newport Folk Festival, Bob Dylan had a surprised planned for the crowd when he had an electric guitar hanging from his shoulder but did not think there would be a big stink about it. He did a half acoustic half electric album, a mix of booing and cheering occurred. People said it was terrible sound quality and some really enjoyed it. Some felt it was a betrayal, according to an insider who was there say that Bob was shaken at the time.
Myth/Legend #5: It has been said that Gene Simmons has had a tongue transplant because of how long his tongue is. Lead singer of the band “Kiss” is known for the crazy make-up and long tongues, they say it is a cow’s tongue that was surgically attached to his own. Really his tongue is abnormally long and knows how to use it in ways that drew attention to him and his band. The cows tongue is nothing like Gene’s or any other human.
Myth/Legend #6: In the cover of the Sgt. Pepper album I recognize Paul McCartney, he was the lead singer of The Beatles and the only survivor of the group. Edgar Allen Poe was a famous poet and story writer. He is known for his creepy stories that are very well known today. Bob Dylan, a famous guitarist and known for his electric change. Three people I do not know are W.C Fields, Max Miller, and Diana Dors.
