Speaking of Doc Pomus, I always loved the story behind his writing the lyric for the following gem: Pomus
was crippled by polio. When he married, it was to a stage dancer. He wrote the lyric to tell her that even
if he couldn't dance, he wouldn't stand in the way of her dancing. According to Lou Reed, who once worked
with Pomus, Pomus actually wrote the lyric on the couple's wedding day . . .

Other music birthdays today:
* Maynard Ferguson (jazz trumpeter)
Not Mr. Ferguson's greatest hit, but IMO one of his best:

* Randy Travis (country singer)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cf_AIK9e6Hc
* Tyrone Davis (soul singer)
An oft-overlooked hitmaker of the late 60s/early 70s. Here's one of his best and biggest, with a sound a few years ahead of its time:

Those birthday listings can't be complete from what I see, it's probably a bit hit and miss.

@TomSea

Adele may be the most perfect "music package" of my lifetime. There are a FEW others who can sing as well as she can,but they don't write their own music.

Hard to believe she had her sights set on just being a song-writer,isn't it?

All good songs,

Per Tammy Wynette, so many of these country singers passed away fairly young. Smokey barrooms?  alcohol or a bad diet. Kind of sad.

Read a bit on Belvin in the Sam Cooke biography. Fine recording artist.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_Belvin

I think I remember some radio station would often sign off with this, I know of another radio station that would sign off with "Sleep Walk" by Santos and Johnny.

I see an extended version is available, I'll have to listen to it some time.

No offense, but do you realize that JC Mellencamp is about as left wing as they come in the music industry?  Find it strange you'd use him as an avatar.

Rush's "Working man" from their "ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE" album.

Listen to Neil Peart on the drum kit. Starts around 9:19.

One of the best drum solos I've ever heard.
And I've been around for a long time.

Oh yeah...

Peart has become pretty much accepted as the greatest rock drummer in history.  Including Bonham, Moon, and Palmer.

Just for fun.
