Sensational, Judith, you've excelled yourself with this starting list.

Ronald, could you give us the groups which these Congoese musicians were part of, to give them a context?

Thank you, Charlie. Now that we've almost gone full circle, it feels like the system is gettting all sorted out.

CG asked me to post my birthplace and date, but just seeing my name in this list makes me blush (i'm not worthy, to coin a phrase) so rather than do that I'd prefer if what details are up there already are removed - thanks, Judith!!!

Now, while proposed nominees for a CBE or the position of manager of the English football team are entitled to waive the honour, and indeed are regarded as being wise to do so, it is not so easy to be removed from these birthday listings. In fact, as far as I know, it is simply impossible. It is not up to birthday nominees to determine their own worthiness.

So hide that blush with a good foundation cream, Howard, and declare the when and where of your origins.

I was always led to believe nothing was impossible, but as I've now learnt this is not the case, it would be churlish of me not to provide the additional vital data you require.

Cambridge 1958.

Postby judith » Wed Dec 05, 2007 7:40 am

When making birthday posts on the YouTube thread, I noticed a discrepancy in the date and place of birth of Abdoulaye Diabate. I cannot find my original notes (I can't even remember if I'm the one who posted him, but I think I was) as to why I have his birthday on 5 Dec 1950, in Senegal. There are many Abdoulaye Diabates. I've found a birthday in 1956 in Kela, Mali for "Djoss" Diabate. I've found a birthday in 1952 in Segou, Mali for another A. Diabate. I was going by the Abdoulaye Diabate I watched on YouTube...in any case. I cannot confirm any birthdays for the gentleman. My apologies. Shame. There is a lovely video of Abdoulaye Diabate with Banning Eyre and one of his little son playing the djembe.
