LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- For over 50 years, the legendary Sunset Strip has been a hub for L.A.'s rock scene and a haven for musicians. From the Whisky A Go-Go and The Roxy, to the iconic Rainbow Bar & Grill, the Sunset Strip is in itself an L.A. icon.

SUNSET STRIP VENUES

The Whisky a Go-Go has helped launched careers of some of rock's biggest bands including The Doors, who began as the house band. Another iconic venue on the strip, the Roxy, is known for the great sound and classic rock 'n' roll atmosphere.

PAUL'S HEAD

In the 1960s it was not uncommon to see billboards of the Beatles in Los Angeles. However, it was strange when one billboard was suddenly missing Paul McCartney's head! Robert Landua, artist of the billboard, noticed the head was missing in 1969. It was a mystery for 40 years until Vintage Los Angeles, along with our very own Tina Malave, found the local man with Paul's head!
