Not sure where to put this. Thought it might make for an interesting topic as someone touched on it in an unrelated thread.
If you've never looked it up I tried:
http://philbrodieband.com/muso_birthdays_january.htm - http://philbrodieband.com/muso_birthdays_january.htm (it might not be comprehensive with regard to prog and none of the artists are necessarily prog. Would like to hear from someone with any better web sites to try.)
I got these results for myself (3/30):
March 30th
1979: Norah Jones [US singer]. 1979: Simon Webbe [vocals; Blue]. 1968: Celine Dion [Canadian singer]. 1967: Ace/Martin Kent [UK guitarist, Skunk Anansie] 1965: Tim Dorney [keyboards; Republica]. 1964: Tracy Chapman [singer, guitar, songwriter]. 1963: M.C. Hammer/Stanley Kirk Burrell [rap artist]. 1955: Randy VanWarmer [singer, songwriter,composer]*12.Jan.2004. 1950: Dave Ball [UK guitarist; Bedlam/Procol Harum/freelance]. 1949: Lena Lovich/Lili-Marlene Premilovich [US singer, saxophone]. 1948: James "Jim Dandy" Mangrum [lead vocals; Black Oak Arkansas]. 1945: Johnny Walker/Peter Dingley [Radio DJ; Radio Caroline/BBC Radio]. 1945: Eric Clapton [singer, guitarist, songwriter]. 1941: Graeme Edge [drums, Moody Blues]. 1930: Rolf Harris [singer, didjeridu, piano]. 1914: Sonny Boy Williamson I/John Lee Williamson [blues harmonica player]*01.Jun.1948. 1913: Frankie Laine/Francesco Paolo LoVecchio [US singer]*06.Feb.2007. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

^ Actually I love the Colosseum & Atomic Rooster albums Farlowe's been on, he's a powerful singer and does a great job (he's also great on Page's "Outrider"), but beyond the musical qualities his voice suggests me an annoying personality - which is probably not the case, but I can't help feeling that way . I wish I had Robert Plant too, instead of Farlowe.

Patrice Rushen has had an intersection with progressive music, she's worked with Jean-Luc Ponty and John McLauglin, I believe...
Buddy Rich is a well regarded jazz drummer, though I don't think I have any of his stuff in my collection.
