Tomorrow would have been his 69th birthday.

He wrote a song named after his birth date.

And also one celebrating a sportsman.

He's a new one to me, thanks Mike. "March 4th 1943" is a lovely, infectious tune. The wiki link tells us
Dalla died in the morning of 1 March 2012, three days before his 69th birthday, right after having had breakfast.
Who wrote that - Alan Bennett?
