Born To Rock...

Wow... what a lot of choice there is for today! I could have had (amongst others):

1944 - Gary Glitter (Never! It will be a cold day in Hell before that pervert features on my blog!)
1940 - Ricky Nelson
1951 - Philip Bailey (Earth, Wind & Fire)
1953 - Alex Van Halen (Van Halen... Tempting... Very, very tempting)
1953 - Billy Burnette (Fleetwood Mac)
1964 - Dave Rowntree (Blur)
1972 - Darren Hayes (Savage Garden & solo artist)
1976 - H from Steps (lol... considered for about a microsecond longer than I considered Gary Glitter)
1980 - Michelle McManus
1983 - Matt Willis (Busted and now solo)

But I decided on....

May 8th, 1951 - Charlton Christopher Frantz, later just Chris Frantz, drummer with Talking Heads and then Tom Tom Club...

Talking Heads with the seminal "Road To Nowhere"...
