This week's birthdays include a trio of incandescent rock legends – Axl Rose musing about recording a triple album and sacking his drummer, Alice Cooper on corrupting the youth, and Nigel Tufnel, lead guitarist of Spinal Tap, pushing the amp up to 11. There’s musicologist Alan Lomax on prison songs, a clip of a film melodrama with violinist Jascha Heifetz, a tour of the world with Bob Marley on Google Earth from Trenchtown to Addis Ababa, and Barrett Strong, who recorded the original, terrific version of "Money" on Motown in 1959. All together now: “Your lovin' gives me a thrill/ But your lovin' don't pay my bills.”
