Black Oak Arkansas vocalist and charismatic frontman, James “Jim Dandy” Mangrum was born on this day, March 30th, in 1948!

Go Jim Dandy, Go!
Sly Stone — the man, the legend —Â was born on this day, March 15th, in 1944. “Stand” is my favorite Sly and the Family Stone song. In fact, I dare you to name a better song than this one. I don’t think it can be done. Happy Birthday Sly, we love your awesome music!
