Singer April Stevens is 93 today. Her 1959 single Teach Me Tiger was banned by several stations for it's suggestiveness, one of the first releases to achieve that, which probably contributed to it only reaching number 86 on the Billboard chart. It's since featured in several films and TV, including Call the Midwife.

 

Her biggest success was as part of a duet with her brother Antonio, performing as Nino Tempo & April Stevens, who reached number 1 on the Billboard chart in 1963 Deep Purple, which received a Grammy for best Rock & Roll record.

He does absolutely nothing for me.  Such cold, stony eyes.  Very convincing as a bad guy.

Oh I don't think he's a stellar  actor but I would consider allowing him the privilege of getting into my bed once just to pass some time until  one of my favourites became  available...

I thought he was brilliant in The Fall.  Really chilling.

Rita Coolidge is 77 today. Chiefly known a recording artist she also wrote, but was never credited with, the coda of Layla, which later also appeared on a recording by her sister Priscilla & her husband Booker T. Jones (yes, that Booker T.) as Time (no relation). Earlier she had collaborated on the composition of Superstar (with Delany & Bonnie and Leon Russell), later a hit by The Carpenters, but also received no credit.

 

She had relationships with both Stephen Stills and Graham Nash, leaving the former for the latter, which, it is alleged, triggered the break-up of CSN&Y. She had a volatile marriage to Kris Kristofferson, for 7 years, until they divorced.

 

She was in a relationship with Jim Gordon of Derek & the Dominoes, when he physically assaulted her, causing her never to speak to him again (he was diagnosed schizophrenic and later was convicted of murdering his mother). In 2014, sister Priscilla would be murdered by her husband (not Booker T, they divorced in 79) in a murder/suicide - she had to arrange his funeral and his ashes of the murderer were delivered to her to take care of, as his family wanted nothing to do with him.
