March 15th Birthdays
(1767) Andrew Jackson- He was the 7th President of the United States of America. This guy was an enigma. Positives: he wanted to eliminate the Electoral College and the Second Bank of the United States. Negatives: He killed a lot of Native Americans and he owned slaves.
(1912) Lightning Hopkins- Old black blues men in America never got the love they should've and if they did they probably wouldn't write music like this.
(1935) Judd Hirsch- It's Alex Reiger!
(1940) Phil Lesh- The Grateful Dead started a movement that carried on for a long time. There's no place to buy brownies that look like they were rolled with someone's feet in a dirty parking lot anymore.
(1941) Mike Love- The Beach Boys had their moments.
(1943) Iron Sheik- He's the guy that made Hulk Hogan's championship reign possible.
(1944) Sly Stone- I didn't realize until recently how similar funk music is to psychedelic rock music.
(1975) Will I Am- He's been involved in some great musical projects.



I always liked Sly's music
