TomSea:
Larry Corryel, the Trio album is interesting with John McLauglin and Paco de Lucia:
It looks like they teamed up a few times through the decades.
Also, I'm not sure if any of Marvin Gaye's songs with Tammi Terrell were posted.
She tragically passed away, young herself. Only 24, she succumbed to illness.

. . . and the Jean Terrell-led Supremes made a few records that were easily the equal of many they made with Diana Ross, even if Ross
had the bigger name and was a hard act to follow in terms of image . . .

Tammi Terrell was a tragedy. Some Motown insiders thought her issues began with an abusive relationship she had with Temptations lead singer
David Ruffin and, perhaps coincidentally, developed migraine headaches. (Ruffin once hit her over the head with a motorcycle helmet during an
argument.) She collapsed in Marvin Gaye's arms during a show in Virginia and was diagnosed with a brain tumour; she struggled to continue
recording as her health declined and underwent eight surgeries before she finally died in 1970. "It was as if God had taken pity on this tortured
angel and finally let her rest," Motown historian Nelson George wrote of her death. Marvin Gaye was said to have been so devastated that he
retired from the road for three years; some who knew him well believe he never recovered from Terrell's death.

Late entry: This fellow's birthday... http://www.hillbilly-music.com/artists/index.php
In 1908, 110 years ago...Buddy Ebsen, that's what he broke into the business as, a dancer?? I think so.
With Shrley Temple:
It's probably among my favorite Andy Griffith shows, where Buddy Ebsen was a hobo.

Checking a few birthdays, as we mainly look at mainstream performers, largely popular performers I'd say and a few names jump out, Doris Day, Wayne Newton, big names and plenty of others too.
Stan Freeman (not Stan Friedman), 'Fly Me To The Moon':
Doris Day, 'Que Sera, Sera', to me, is her biggest song but she recorded for decades sometime before that....
Per Perry Como's 'Jukebox Baby', someone made this video with a young Doris in it per some movie. I think it's interesting to watch. It's all about dancing.
Don Gibson, "Oh Lonesome Me":
Jeff Barry, songwriter was born on this day, wrote such songs as "Da Do Ron Ron" and "Tell Laura I Love Her" sung here by Ray Peterson:
Jan Berry of Jan and Dean, "Sidewalk Surfin'":
Wayne Newton, 'Danke Schoen', he was on some tv shows too, guest appearances...The Lucy Show I think. Born in Virginia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Newton
Tony Orlando, I believe he was in the business, before the big act, with Dawn...."Tie A Yellow Ribbon":
"He Don't Love You, Like I Love You":
"Bless You", looks solo.
Miguel Bose, Panamanian Spanish singer, 'Amante Bandido' which is a bit of a fun song, you can tell, it's sort of like the music played in the early '80s.
Quebec singer, Marie Denise Pelletier , so some French-languaged singing from Canada...
Richard Manuel, another Canadian, looks like he played with the Band and Ronnie Hawkins before that, "Up On Cripple Creek" by the Band.
Mel Schacher, Grand Funk Railroad, 'I'm Your Captain/Closer To Home':

Craig Taubman, Jewish singer, "Hashkiveinu":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUTiKtCS23c&list=RDEMYbgYy7KhCbCnLFmH0T_T4w#
Quite a lineup, and apparently, more could be added...Fortunes again, 3 times in 2 weeks I think....
