    Chicago blues singer Howlin' Wolf is born Chester Arthur Burnett in White Station, Mississippi in 1910, (d.1976)...

    This man heavily influenced the RnB boom in the UK in the early 60s...

    RIP Danny Kirwan aged 68. A superb guitarist, good enough at 17 to complement the mighty Peter Green.

    Jazz legend , Chick Corea is 77 today. Pretty shocking to think that he is this old as I have always considered him to be a contemporary jazz artist although he was first making a name for himself in the late 60's. I particular like his trio with Roy Haynes and Miroslav Vitous and this album is a gem.
