The Capitol Records Tower opened its doors for the first time. Called “The world’s first circular office building,” the 13-story, 150-foot-high edifice was the tallest allowed in earthquake-prone Los Angeles. Located just north of the Hollywood and Vine intersection, the structure was home to Capitol’s offices and recording studios. The first album recorded there was “Frank Sinatra Conducts Tone Poems of Color”.
