On This Day In Dino-history: May 12, 1949

Hey pallies, we sez our thanks to our pallie Mark over at popculturefanboy for today's Dino-story (clicks on tagg of this Dino-gram to goes there). Mr. Mark shares 'nother significant day in our Dino's life with a double dose of Dino-history.

First up on May 12, 1949 we learn of the Martin and Lewis Radio programme at NBC when the boys visit the Capitol Records studio to record a new tune. Loves the Dino and the jer pix that Mark has chosen to use...one that is new to this Dino-holic. Wonderin' if this Dino-pix was indeed shot the day of the recordin' of that radio programme.

Second, on May 12, 1958 we learn that our Dino hit numero 6 with his classic single "Return To Me." For your Dino-listenin' pleasure have included a clip playin' the original Dinotune.


Kudos to Mr. Mark for continuin' to lift up the life and times of our Dino and his many and varied connects with Capitol Records. Dino-sharin', DMP
