Louis Stephen Klimchock was born on October 15, 1939 in Hostettler, Pennsylvania. The left hand hitting infielder would get signed out of high school as an amatuer free agent in 1957 by the Kansas City A’s. At eighteen he made his debut playing in two games as the youngest player in the league. He spent four seasons in Kansas City with a couple of team mates who went on to be great managers, Dick Williams & Whitey Herzog. Klimchock was a career reserve player who saw action at third base, second base, outfield & one game at catcher. He won two batting titles hitting over .330 twice in the minor leagues.

He moved on to the Milwaukee Braves for four seasons, spending a brief time in Washington with the Senators in 1963 as well.

Led Zeppelin reunited for a press conference this week to announce the release of a film of their 2007 reunion show in honor of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun.

I thing the main reason they don't do it is because they know there is no way Plant could pull of any of his old

There is a lot going on with Heart these days, their latest album Fanatic was released this week, a biography of their lives also just came out in a spectacular book, all fans must have. The audio book; Kicking & Screaming: A Story of Heart Soul & Rock & Roll, is even more special since it is narrated by Ann & Nancy themselves, as well as former band members & important figures in their lives as well. They just recently got a star on Hollywood Boulevard & for what its worth, were elected to the so called Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. This week began another leg of their 2012 Tour, landing in the New York area for four shows this week with the first stop in Manhattan at the Beacon Theater.

I will never forget seeing Heart at Radio City Music Hall in 1985, as she walked up the ledge on the side
