I’ve spotted a couple more February Korean birthdays:
Na Hoona, the most charismatic trot singer, who I see recently made the NY Times and BBC News for non-musical reasons. Pusan, 2 Feb. 1947.
Seo Taiji, who in 1992 transformed the Korean music scene as radically as Elvis and the Beatles had done in their countries in earlier decades. Seoul, 21 Feb. 1972.
And one in March:
Cho Yong-pil, voted "The Voice of the Centuryâ€

A few late additions.
3: 1949 - Linda Hargrove (Jacksonville, Florida)
3: 1942 - Kenny Wertz (Washington D.C.) A later Burrito
3: 1962 - Clint Patrick Black pka Clint Black (Long Branch, New Jersey)
5: 1933 - Claude King (Keithville, nr. Shreveport, Louisiana)
5: 1939 - Brian Golbey (Pycombe, Sussex, UK)
7: 1962 - Troyal Garth Brooks pka Garth Brooks (Tulsa, Oklahoma)
7: 1948 - Dan Seals (McCamey, Texas)
14: 1951 - Michael Doucet (Scott, Louisiana)
17: 1969 - John Randall Stewart pka Jon Randall (Dallas, Texas)
23: 1946 - Rusty Young (Long Beach, California) Poco pedal steel player

February 1 would have been the birthday of Mary Jane DeZurik (1917-1981). I’ve located a little more accurately Michael Doucet’s (14) birthplace; Scott is about a 15-minute drive from Lafayette, and I remember it having a very nice dancehall. On one site, I found this story of hairpiece malfunction (as we know from Nashville, an occupational hazard in country music) from February 22 1994.
Pat Boone, while doing a rope trick on TNN's "Crook & Chase," in 1994, knocked his toupee off with the rope. Pat calmly walked to where it had landed, picked it up, and positioned the hairpiece back on top of his head. That incident brought to a close Pat Boone's cowboy imitations.

Thanks for the additions Mike

Whenever I hear Pat Boone's name, I always think of an entry in the Book Of Rock Quotes I had as a teenager: "Pat Boone, you kiss like a cow!".
I can't think what the context was, but it was probaly the first time I'd heard of him.
