Born To Rock...

Hmm... pickings are a bit slim today... only one musician with a birthday that I've actually HEARD of (and even then only the band he was in, I couldn't have told you his name)...

July 13th, 1942 - James Joseph McGuinn III is born. Now, this gets confusing, so bear with me... That's his birth name... but he's now James Roger McGuinn (known professionally as Roger McGuinn, and previously as Jim McGuinn... see, told you it got confusing).

He was guitarist and singer with The Byrds... Here with their cover of Pete Seeger's "Turn, Turn, Turn"...
