Friday, May 11th, 1973

John's third solo album John Entwistle's Rigor Mortis Sets In is released in Britain. The album had been delayed because of planned bridges between tracks that would have featured an imitation of BBC children's show character Andy Pandy spitting and vomiting. Melody Maker finds the Pandy-less LP "ideal party music." Nevertheless, the album fails to chart in the U.K.
The U.S. doesn't get John's album this month but does get an advance single, "Made in Japan" backed with "Roller Skate Kate". They don't put it into their music charts.
