They were born on this day, November 5, so they are Scorpios all. And if you could have put them together in the recording studio with Billy Sherrill -- a birthday boy himself -- you probably would have had something.What, I'm not exactly sure. But something.
Yes, it's time again to play Birthday Band, an occasional SSS feature that is mindless but also quite harmless. We hope you've been paying attention because there might be a quiz at the end of the year.

Ike started out as a radio deejay and he played a lot of country records. So he actually would be a decent fit with Roy Rogers and Billy Sherrill and Gram. They might have let Peter Noone sing some parts. Art and Bryan, no thanks.
ReplyDeleteI started scanning that list and thought, "What about Hickory Wind and my favorite Gram Parson songs, In My Hour of Darkness?" Well, that's one hell of an encore.
