Feelin' Thankful for the Small Things Today

  On this date in 1944 Roger Daltry, vocalist for the Who was born in London, England. Even though Roger is an old man I still would watch out when he's birthday punching.





  On the same date in the village of Betchworth, Surrey, England,  Mike D'abo ,Manfred Mann singer songwriter was also born.


  At their advanced age (> 57) I'm sure they're feeling thankful for the small things today.

  Other notable musicians and vocalist that share this birthday are
Frederic Chopin 1810
Glenn Miller 1904
Harry Belafonte 1927
Jerry Fischer 1942
Tony Ashton 1946
Burning Spear 1948
Bill Ding 1958
Dafydd Leuan 1969
and unfortunately Justin Beiber 1994.

  On this date in 1967 the Beatles recorded ' Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds'

  5. Although I might add it's fitting that his name appears closer to Beiber's than Chopin's.

  6. I think Bill would be more pleased he is above the Drummer of his favourite Band Super Furry Animals.
