Tommy Roe: He turned 70 on Wednesday.
Born May 9 1942 in Atlanta.
He's best known for:
SHEILA
SWEET PEA
HOORAY FOR HAZEL
EVERYBODY
DIZZY
HEATHER HONEY
...of course there are a-dozen-or-so more songs where those came from
---less-than-minor hits and regional-but-not-national ones as well.
Speaking of belated birthdates, a couple OTHERS I missed:
Debbie Reynolds
Born Mary Reynolds on April 1 1932 in El Paso
The singer/actress is now 80-years-old
Carrie Fisher is her daughter.
Willie Nelson
Born April 30 1933 in Ft. Worth
He's now 79-years-old.
Of course the REAL "birthday celebrationals" will come June 19 with Paul McCartney turning 70.
All "Sir Paul" has to do is simply keep from being rendered deceased prior to his next (upcoming) birthday and all of us rock-and-roll and pop-music fans will have something truly special to celebrate.
So, Paul---keep yourself alive at least THAT much longer and the world will have itself a lot of "happy campers".
