Warren Cuccurullo nasceu há 69 anos
Warren Bruce Cuccurullo (Nova York, 8 de dezembro de 1956) é um guitarrista norte-americano de origem italiana que já trabalhou com Frank Zappa, os Duran Duran e os Missing Persons.
Biografia
Warren é o mais velho dos quatro filhos de Jerry e Ellen Cuccurullo; teve dois irmãos, Jerry e Robert, e uma irmã, Stephanie. Tem ascendência italiana (originária da comuna de Nocera Inferiore, na região da Campania, na Itália) e também alguma ascendência grega. Cresceu no subúrbio de Canarsie, do Brooklyn, Nova York, e em 1974 graduou-se na Canarsie High School. Começou a tocar bateria e guitarra ainda criança.
Adotou uma criança, Mayko Cuccurullo (n. 7 de julho de 1983), que vive com a sua mãe, Claudia Bueno (ex-namorada de longa-data de Warren), no Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Mayko apareceu no vídeo Breath After Breath de Duran Duran, filmado em 1994, e também contribuiu em alguns coros no projeto N'Liten Up.
1986 - 2001: Duran Duran
Durante as gravações do álbum Notorious, o guitarrista original do Duran Duran, Andy Taylor, resolveu deixar a banda, depois de desavenças artísticas e até mesmo jurídicas. Cuccurullo conheceu Taylor enquanto tocava com este em ensaios e "jams" da sua banda Missing Persons e, ao saber que Taylor não tinha intenções de voltar aos Duran Duran, ofereceu os seus préstimos à banda inglesa.
Os Duran Duran contrataram então Cuccurullo como guitarrista de estúdio e depois para a turnê do álbum. Mais tarde, ele se tornaria membro efetivo da banda até 2001, quando os Duran Duran resolveram voltar à formação original.

Duran Duran - Breath After Breath
Every day I wake up in this room
And I don't know
Where I come from
Where I'm going to
Then I hear the voice
Senhora musa da paz
Me abraça
Me carrega no teu andor
Dormir no colo da dor
Amiga, arrasa!
A tua mão desenhou
O sonho na areia
Agora, entrega de vez
Meu rumo
E vida
From where I stand
The truth isn't black and white
Alone we live and die
We love and fight
Breath after breath
We carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow
Oh do I dare
Follow through the goorsteps
My whole body hears
Beating on my heart like a feather
Beating of a moment til I disappear
Diga uma palavra alegre
Manda um recado
Que seja agora
Faz o mundo ficar novo
E dançar no colo do tal de amor
From where I stand
The truth isn't black and white
Alone we live and die
We love and fight
Breath after breath
We carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow
Circles in sand are washed out into the sea
Just as we slip on through to eternity
Breath after breath
We carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow
Diga uma palavra, cara
Bem alegre
Corre, manda logo um recado
Me abraça
Faz um clima doce
Me arrepia!
Chega de sufoco
Me põe louco!
Me faz diamante
Teu amante
Dança ao som do vento
Me ensina
Basta de sufoco
Não faz jogo...
A flame of love is burning
Always
The song is of the planets
Oh whooooooo
The dance is to the rhythm of the rain
Where everyone is coming from
Is coming to
And birth is just a
Breath after breath

Harry Chapin nasceu há 83 anos...
Harold Forster Chapin (New York City, December 7, 1942 – East Meadow, New York, July 16, 1981) was an American singer-songwriter, philanthropist, and hunger activist best known for his folk rock and pop rock songs. He achieved worldwide success in the 1970s. Chapin, a Grammy Award-winning artist and Grammy Hall of Fame inductee, has sold over 16 million records worldwide.
Chapin recorded a total of 11 albums from 1972 until his death in 1981. All 14 singles that he released became hits on at least one national music chart. Chapin's best-known songs include "Taxi" and "Cat's in the Cradle."
Chapin's widow won a $12 million decision in a negligence lawsuit against Supermarkets General, the owners of the truck involved.
Chapin is buried in the Huntington Rural Cemetery in Huntington, New York. His epitaph is taken from his 1978 song "I Wonder What Would Happen to This World":
Oh if a man tried
To take his time on Earth
And prove before he died
What one man's life could be worth
I wonder what would happen
to this world

O álbum Thriller foi lançado há 43 anos
Thriller foi o sexto álbum de estúdio na carreira a solo de Michael Jackson, lançado a 30 de novembro de 1982, através da Epic Records. Assim como o álbum anterior do cantor, Off the Wall (1979), que foi aclamado e bem sucedido comercialmente, Thriller foi inteiramente produzido por Quincy Jones e co-produzido por Jackson. As gravações do projeto ocorreram entre 14 de abril a 8 de novembro de 1982 nos estúdios Westlake Recording. O orçamento total para a produção do disco foi de 750 mil dólares, financiados por Jones. Jackson compôs e co-produziu quatro das nove faixas do disco. Musicalmente, Thriller explora géneros semelhantes aos usados em Off the Wall, incluindo o pop, o pop rock, o pós-disco e o funk, além de estilos suaves, como a música contemporânea e o R&B.

Roger Glover, baixista dos Deep Purple, comemora hoje oitenta anos...!
Depois de passar quatro anos com os Deep Purple, quando a banda teve os seus lançamentos mais bem sucedidos de álbuns, com Rock e Machine Head, Glover, juntamente com Gillan, abandonou a banda após a segunda turnê dos Deep Purple do Japão, no verão de 1973.
Ao longo da década de 70, Glover passou a produzir bandas como Judas Priest, Nazareth, Elf, Ian Gillan Band, e David Coverdale.
Em 1974, Glover lançou o seu primeiro álbum solo, Butterfly Ball. De 1979 a 1984, ele era o baixista, compositor e produtor da banda de Ritchie Blackmore a solo, os Rainbow, trabalhando em quatro álbuns de estúdio do grupo.
Em 1983 gravou o seu terceiro álbum solo, Mask, lançado no ano seguinte. Quando, em abril de 1984 a banda Deep Purple foi recriada, Glover voltou para a sua antiga banda, onde permaneceu durante as últimas três décadas e meia.
Em 1988, Glover e o colega dos Deep Purple, Ian Gillan, gravaram um álbum, como projeto paralelo à banda, Accidentally on Purpose. Quase duas décadas depois, Glover tocou com Ian Gillan durante a breve turnê de Gillan, a solo, em 2006.
Em 2002, Glover lançou o seu quarto álbum a solo, intitulado Snapshot, sob o nome de Roger Glover & The Guilty Party. O álbum contou com performances de Randall Bramblett (com quem compartilhou os créditos de várias faixas), bem como a filha de Glover, Gillian.
Em 2011, Glover lançou o seu quinto álbum solo, If Life Was Easy, que contou com participações especiais de Dan McCafferty, dos Nazareth, e Pete Agnew, bem como Gallay Walther e Daniel "Sahaj" Ticotin.

Christine McVie, uma das vocalistas dos Fleetwood Mac, morreu há três anos...
Christine Anne McVie, née Perfect (Greenodd, 12 July 1943 – London, 30 November 2022) was an English musician, singer and songwriter. She was best known as keyboardist and one of the vocalists of Fleetwood Mac.
McVie was a member of several bands, notably Chicken Shack, in the mid-1960s British Blues scene. She began working with Fleetwood Mac in 1968, initially as a session player, before joining the band in 1970. Her first compositions with Fleetwood Mac appeared on their fifth album, Future Games. She remained with the band through many changes of line-up, writing songs and performing lead vocals before partially retiring in 1998. McVie was described as "the prime mover behind some of Fleetwood Mac's biggest hits" and eight songs she wrote or co-wrote, including "Don't Stop", "Everywhere" and "Little Lies", appeared on Fleetwood Mac's 1988 Greatest Hits album. She appeared as a session musician on the band's last studio album, Say You Will. She also released three solo studio albums.
As a member of Fleetwood Mac, McVie was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and in 1998 received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. In the same year, after almost 30 years with Fleetwood Mac, she left the band and lived in semi-retirement, releasing a solo album in 2004. She appeared on stage with Fleetwood Mac at the O2 Arena in London in September 2013 and rejoined the band in 2014 prior to their On with the Show tour.
McVie received a Gold Badge of Merit Award from BASCA, now The Ivors Academy, in 2006. She received the Ivor Novello Award for Lifetime Achievement from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors in 2014 and was honoured with the Trailblazer Award at the UK Americana Awards in 2021. She was also the recipient of two Grammy Awards.
(...)
McVie married John McVie in 1968, with Peter Green as best man. Instead of a honeymoon, they celebrated at a hotel in Birmingham with Joe Cocker, who happened to be staying there, before going on the road with their own bands. The couple divorced in 1976, but remained friends and maintained a professional partnership. During the production of Rumours, Christine had an affair with Fleetwood Mac's lighting engineer, Curry Grant, which inspired the song "You Make Loving Fun". From 1979 to 1982, she dated Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys. McVie married Portuguese keyboardist and songwriter Eddy Quintela on 18 October 1986. Quintela and McVie collaborated on a number of songs together, including "Little Lies". They divorced in 2003, and Quintela died in 2020.
(...)
McVie died in hospital on 30 November 2022, at the age of 79. Her death was announced by her family through social media. In a statement following her death, Fleetwood Mac said that she was "the best musician anyone could have in their band and the best friend anyone could have in their life". Fellow band member Stevie Nicks said McVie had been her "best friend in the whole world". According to her death certificate revealed in April 2023, McVie died of a stroke and suffered from metastatic cancer of unknown primary origin.

Michael Hutchence, o vocalista dos INXS, morreu há vinte e oito anos...
Michael falou com a ex-namorada Michelle Bennett, com quem combinou um almoço no dia seguinte. Michelle passou logo de manhã, no dia 22, no quarto de Michael, mas presumiu que este estava dormindo, já que não obteve resposta deste. Foi uma empregada que abriu a porta e encontrou Michael sem vida, logo após. Ele havia morrido enforcado com o próprio cinto, preso à maçaneta da porta. Apesar de suspeita de asfixia autoerótica, a versão oficial diz que se enforcou com um cinto. Segundo Rhett, irmão de Michael, o quarto estava todo revirado. O pai de Michael, Kelland Hutchence, ficou sabendo da morte do filho por um telefonema de uma rede de TV. Paula logo viajou para a Austrália com a filha Tiger.
A cerimónia ocorreu na igreja de Santo André, em Sydney, com transmissão nacional. Milhares de pessoas acompanharam do lado de fora da catedral. O caixão de Michael foi coberto por flores (Iris) e uma única tigerlily (lírio), representando a filha. Ele foi cremado e parte das cinzas foram espalhadas em Sydney.

Peter Cox, vocalista dos Go West, celebra hoje setenta anos...!
Peter John Cox (Kingston upon Thames, 17 November 1955) is an English singer-songwriter, best known as the lead vocalist of the English pop duo Go West. As a solo artist, he scored three top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart in the 1990s.
Early career and Go West
Peter John Cox sang in his school choir and later as a chorister at The Chapel Royal, Hampton Court Palace. In his early twenties, he worked in a cover band for the Mecca Organisation. In 1978, he joined Terra Nova, a band put together by former Manfred Mann's Earth Band members Chris Slade and Colin Pattenden; they released an album in 1980. While in residency in a Sheffield nightclub, Cox began writing with longtime collaborator Richard Drummie, with whom he eventually signed a publishing deal.
In 1982, Cox and Drummie formed the band Go West, with Cox as lead vocalist and Drummie on guitar and backing vocals. After Go West signed a deal with Chrysalis Records, "We Close Our Eyes" became a top 5 hit on the UK Singles Chart in 1985. Other Go West singles released that year included "Call Me" (1985) and "Don't Look Down". The following year, Go West was named 'Best Newcomer' at the 1986 Brit Awards.
In 1987, the band reached the top 40 in the US with the single "Don't Look Down – The Sequel". In 1990, Go West had a No. 8 hit in the US with "King of Wishful Thinking" from the film Pretty Woman. In 1992, the duo released their third studio album Indian Summer, which included "Faithful"; the song reached the top 20 in Canada and the United States.
Solo career
Cox moved to Los Angeles in 1993 to pursue a solo career. His self-titled debut studio album, Peter Cox, was released in 1997 to critical acclaim. Subsequent albums include Flame Still Burns (2001), Nine Miles High (2002), Desert Blooms (2002), Game for Fools (2005) and Motor City Music (2006). Cox also teamed up with Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet on the album Tony Hadley vs Peter Cox & Go West, released in 2004.
In 2003, Cox replaced Then Jerico's Mark Shaw on the British reality television show Reborn in the USA after Shaw quit the series in the show's first few days. Even though Cox had achieved previous success across the Atlantic as the lead vocalist of Go West, he was able to appear on the show as he was unknown in the US as a solo artist. He was a favourite to win but was voted off in New York after he forgot the lyrics to the Norah Jones hit he was performing.
Other albums by Cox include The S1 Sessions (2010), Riding the Blinds (2012), and Damn the Brakes (2013).
Cox's voice has been described as "smooth as silk" with a "gritty underbelly".
