I was asleep at the wheel yesterday, so this one is a day late, but speaking of getting sued...

On March 25, 1963 The Beach Boys released their second album, Surfin' U S A.

Brian Wilson was later sued for using a direct ripoff of the music from Chuck Berry's 'Sweet Little Sixteen'. Berry himself was not involved in the suit, and later said he liked Wilson's version.
