Famous Boomers

We get a lot of requests asking for the names of famous baby boomers (in this case, people born between 1946 and 1964, inclusive). We're a little hesitant to post a listing. Frankly, some of our more famous peers embarrass us. But here it is, nonetheless, in more or less alphabetical order, including date of birth.

These are some of the notable -- both the famous and infamous. If it were up to us, John Hinckley, for instance, would be banned from the boomer generation. But... there he is. And yes, some on our list have already checked out.

And no, the list does not include the Fonz. Henry Winkler was born a year too early.

Our list does not include millions of boomers who are entrepreneurs creating jobs for everyone, dedicated teachers who are shaping the next generation, scientists and researchers who are making our lives better... and so on. But, here are some of the notable boomers. We surely are a diverse bunch!

The BBHQ Album of the Month is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD)," by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert last year, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you?

The BBHQ Book of the Month is "Vinyl Highway," by Dee Dee Phelps. You remember her as Dee Dee, of Dick and Dee Dee. Together, they took a decade long ride on the rock and roll roller coaster. It was a heck of a ride! Dick Clark, Quincy Jones, the Beach Boys, Glenn Campbell, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Vinton... Dick and Dee Dee rubbed shoulders with all of them. This is her "behind the scenes" story. It's pretty cool.
