Friday, April 18, 1975. Executing the radicals.

Hang Thun Hak, 48 year old former radical Socialist Prime Minister of Cambodia was executed by the Khmer Rouge.  He'd been in the far left himself and had contacts with the Khmer Rouge, none of which saved him, with execution of left wing radicals actually being common amongst Communist.

The NVA took Phan Thiết.

Van McCoy released The Hustle.

ZZ Top released Fandango!
