Canada's premier Rock band, The Guess Who perform at the White House for President Richard Nixon and his royal guests, Prince Charles and Princess Anne. Officials ask them not to play their Billboard chart topping hit, "American Woman", which sounded like an attack on America's foreign policy and domestic problems. Years later, composer Burton Cummings would explain, "When I said, 'American woman, stay away from me,' I really meant 'Canadian woman, I prefer you.' It was all a happy accident."
