Ryan’s Red Rock Trivia 07/29/21

Question: This day in 1967, which Classic Rock band started a three-week run at No.1 on the US singles with an edited version of their hit song?

Answer: The Doors started a three-week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with an edited version of ‘Light My Fire’. The group’s first US No.1, it only reached No.49 on the UK chart. Eventually, many radio stations in the US would start playing the full six minute and fifty second album cut, which features a longer instrumental break.
