Or do you prefer Fridays and ending the week with a bang? I prefer the usual Friday challenges because Monday is a working day for me and my work starts by the time the challenge opens and I like to get my entries in as early as possible. "Ruby Tuesday" is a song by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released in January 1967. The song became the band's fourth #1 hit in the United States and #3 in the United Kingdom. Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song #310 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Keith Richards, who composed the song with Mick Jagger, explained that the lyrics were about Linda Keith, his girlfriend in the mid-1960s who was a fashion model at the time. The song has been covered by many artists in various genres throughout the years, including folk singer Melanie, Minnie Riperton, Julian Lennon, Don Williams, Nazareth and Rod Stewart, among others. The subject of the video background of my recording is the restaurant named after the song. Ruby Tuesday was born out of a $10,000 endowment Sandy Beall had received from a friend and operator of several Pizza Huts to open his own restaurant. He used the title of the song when he started his restaurant chain as suggested by one of several fraternity brothers who were co-investors. The restaurant chain (as I understand from research) has closed down many branches and filed for bankruptcy mainly due to the 2020 pandemic and emerged from bankruptcy on February 24, 2021. While many locations have closed, Ruby Tuesday has also been working to restructure and remains open in some areas, focusing on a smaller, more resilient unit of restaurants.
