Other birthdays, Arthur Bliss,  an interesting figure. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Bliss

Also, members of the Shirelles, the Band, the Pips (Gladys Night) and Wishbone Ash.

So, quite a few recognizable names.

. . . Andrew Gold, session guitarist turned hitmaker in his own right (this song
eventually made him a fortune not just as a hit for himself but as the theme
for The Golden Girls) . . .


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfjCPzIqX_k

. . . Pete de Freitas, drummer for Echo & the Bunnymen . . .


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXM77Jrh74I

Trivia: "Echo" in the band's name referred to the drum machine the group used
when singer Ian McCulloch and guitarist Will Sergeant first got together and
began making demos with the drum machine. They added bassist Les Pattinson,
began gigging around Liverpool with the drum machine, and called themselves
Echo & the Bunnymen. They dumped the drum machine in favour of de Freitas
after their first single was issued and signed a full recording contract, but they
kept the full name of the band, anyway. De Freitas was killed in an auto accident in
1989.

Jordanaires were their own group even pre-Elvis, I believe I've seen songs by them from as early as 1952.

I thought he was the one with the curly hair on the right.

Also, I use to buy some of those old rock and roll magazines, Circus, Creem and I read one with an interview with the band. "Datebook"? I'm not sure if that is correct.

They lost steam as a group I think. They seemed alright.
