Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

New Jersey band Mirrors On The Moon's dual single, “Wild Love / California,” is officially out now. The songs were written and produced by frontman Donny Dykowsky and mastered by Grammy-nominated Joe Lambert (Mt. Joy, Sharon Van Etton, Black Crowes). Glide Magazine premiered the video for "Wild Love." They cheered, "With a distinctively vintage feel to the music video, the song is a sharp and grooving work of laid back rock and roll. Big Tom Petty-style choruses and a nice dose of organ give this song the feeling of soulful Americana-rock. We also get a healthy amount of feedback-laced, psyched out guitar soloing that gives the tune a trippy, acid-washed feel. If you’re looking for an easygoing summer road trip tune, this is it."

We can argue all day long about who invented heavy metal. But there’s no denying that Black Sabbath largely shaped the genre. Tony Iommi, Bill Ward, Geezer Butler and Ozzy Osbourne banded together to form the legendary quartet in 1968. Four months after releasing their self-titled debut album, the Birmingham, England boys were back in the studio for a follow-up record. Originally written as an afterthought, “Paranoid” became both the title track and the band’s signature song. And 54 years ago today, on Aug. 7, 1970, the world heard it for the first time.
