Harry Styles, One Direction has a birthday today, he really does look the way Jagger use to look in the days of the early Rolling Stones when he is up there, otherwise, a few other birthdays today:
Dennis Brown, reggae singer, had a crossover hit with "Money In My Pocket".
Don Everly, (Everly Bros. - Crying in the rain) sort of going outside their best known hits though this one is up there:
Mike Campbell, with Tom Petty and the heartbreakers, again, a deep album cut, "King's Highway":
I thought this was from the "Straight out of darkness" red album. Maybe this is from the compilation.
From Buffalo New York, Rick James, really seemed like a wild man. Wasn't it Rick James and the Mary Jane girls or something? (Island Lady), obviously, "Superfreak" must be his signature song.
Doctor Hook with Sam Cooke's "Only Sixteen" and "Sylvia's Mother", maybe my favorite from them, they were more than "On the cover of the Rolling Stone":
Bob Shane, Kingston Trio (Scarlet Ribbons):
Normie Rowe, Australia, had a hit down there with "Que Sera, Sera":
And lastly, Mike Brant, Israeli, singer had a successful career after moving to France. He seemed to have emotional problems and jumped to his death. It may not have been his first attempt, see bio. Sad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Brant
A lot of youtube hits for only being up there for a few months.

Rick James' interesting life, he knew Neil Young in Canada and other interesting details.
Graham Nash is mentioned in the article, Graham is a b-day boy for tomorrow.
Might have been nice, if Rick James had maybe gone in another direction.
Even his songs, I hesitated posting, seems those are even R-rated.

And with "Immigration Man":

And beaucoup other good songs.
In spite, of Graham and that whole cabal probably being rather progressive in their political expression. As one of their songs goes "A man's a man who looks a man right between the eyes"... I remember that.
Howard Bellamy of the Bellamy Brothers, "Let your love flow":
