Did you know? Billie Holiday faced legal troubles due to drug possession, ultimately dying while under arrest. Johnny Cash intercepted Soviet communications during his service in Germany. The Beatles were banned from performing in Israel for reasons related to their perceived impact, while Joni Mitchell wrote "Woodstock" despite never attending the festival, and Stevie Wonder was signed by Motown at the age of 11.

1915-1929: Childhood Billie Holiday Eleanora Fagan[4][5] was born on April 7, 1915,[6] in Philadelphia to African American unwed teenage couple Clarence Halliday and Sarah Julia "Sadie" Fagan (née Harris). Her mother moved to Philadelphia at age 19,[7] after she was evicted from her parents' home in the Sandtown-Winchester neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland, for becoming pregnant. With no support from her parents, she made arrangements with her older, married half-sister, Eva Miller, for Eleanora to stay with her in Baltimore. Not long after Eleanora was born, Clarence abandoned his family to pursue a career as a jazz banjo player and guitarist.[8] Some historians have disputed Holiday's paternity, as a copy of her birth certificate in the Baltimore archives lists her father as "Frank DeViese". Other historians consider this an anomaly, probably inserted by a hospital or government worker.[9] DeViese lived in Philadelphia, and Sadie, then known by her maiden name Harris, may have met him through her work. Harris married Philip Gough in 1920,[10] but the marriage ended within two years.[citation needed] Holiday, aged two, in 1917 Eleanora grew up in Baltimore and had a very difficult childhood. Her mother often took what were then known as "transportation jobs", serving on passenger railroads.[11] Holiday was raised largely by Eva Miller's mother-in-law, Martha Miller, and suffered from her mother's absences and being in others' care for her first decade of life.[12] Holiday's autobiography, Lady Sings the Blues, published in 1956, is inconsistent regarding details of her early life, but much was confirmed by Stuart Nicholson in his 1995 biography of the singer. After attending kindergarten at St. Frances Academy, she frequently skipped school, and her truancy resulted in her being brought before the juvenile court on January 5, 1925, when she was nine years old.[13] She was sent to the House of the Good Shepherd, a Catholic reform school for African-American girls. After nine months, she was "paroled" on October 3, 1925, to her mother. Sadie had opened a restaurant, the East Side Grill, and mother and daughter worked long hours there. She dropped out of school at age 11.[14] On December 24, 1926, Sadie came home to discover a neighbor, Wilbur Rich, attempting to rape Eleanora. She successfully fought back, and Rich was arrested. Officials placed Eleanora in the House of the Good Shepherd under protective custody as a state witness in the rape case.[15] Holiday was released in February 1927, when she was nearly 12. She found a job running errands in a brothel,[16] and she scrubbed marble steps as well as kitchen and bathroom floors of neighborhood homes.[17] Around this time, she first heard the records of Louis Armstrong and Bessie Smith. In particular, Holiday cited "West End Blues" as an intriguing influence, pointing specifically to the scat section duet with the clarinet as her favorite part.[18] By the end of 1928, Holiday's mother moved to Harlem, New York, again leaving Eleanora with Martha Miller.[19] By early 1929, Holiday had joined her mother in Harlem.

Also note that no Beatles concert was ever scheduled in Israel to begin with, as a committee heaeing was needed before even scheduling one.

I also think about the time when Charles Manson was Dennis Wlison's frequent house guest. Dennis Wilson got busted so badly for it. He was Charles Tex Watson's accidental link with Manson in the case. No one has ever told Charles Tex Watson. "Follow the real Jesus Christ, not the false Jesus." Dean Moorehouse, Bruce Davis, and Steve Grogan were Charles Manson's other disciples. Most of Charles Manson's followers were women, not men.

This is all lies folks. Johnny Cash did not do that. Joni Mitchell was invited to Woodstock to perform. The only way for music acts to get in was by helicopter. She does not fly. So she wrote the song Woodstock. Dont listen to the AI

Joni Mitchell wrote "Woodstock" when the guys from CSNY paid her a visit, after their set at the festival, and told her all about it. She could have gone, but she didn't want to miss a chance to be on Dick Cavett's show, which had an enormous TV audience. No one told her she wasn't allowed. It was her decision, which she did have a bit of regret for making. If you want to do some music "facts", look into all the studies conducted by the CIA, other gov't agencies, and university studies paid for by the gov't, to see how music can be used to control people. It's some, truly, fascinating stuff. They're still doing research, and they have used music against people, many times.
