This day in music history.

June 30, 1976, Police raided the home of Neil Diamond searching for drugs, police enter the singer's house with a search warrant. After a three hour inspection the Police confiscated less than a gram of marijuana, which was no longer a felony under California's new drug law. (Therefore there was no arrest) The raid ended with Diamond presenting each of the officers with an autographed copy of his Beautiful Noise album. His debut the next night at the new Aladin Theatre for the Performing Arts in Las Vegas goes on as planned. Police admitted they acted on an anonymous tip, many people believe it was Elvis that turned him in.
