Today in music history

* In 1913, Broadway musical star Mary Martin was born in Weatherford, Texas. Her most famous roles were in South Pacific in 1949, Peter Pan in 1954 and The Sound Of Music in 1959. Martin also performed in a series of movie musicals in the 1940s, but was never a major film star. She died of cancer on Nov. 3, 1990.

* In 1982, Michael Jackson's Thriller album was released. Thriller is the biggest-selling LP in history, more than 40 million copies worldwide. U.S. sales totalled more than 24 million. From the LP came the million-selling singles This Girl Is Mine, a duet with Paul McCartney, Billie Jean and Beat It.

* In 1997, a Princess Diana tribute album featuring 36 of the world's leading music stars went on sale in Britain. It was released in North America a week later. Among those contributing songs were Michael Jackson, Barbra Streisand and Luciano Pavarotti. Profits went to the favourite charities of Diana, who died in a car crash in Paris the previous August.
