Today would have been the 100th birthday of one of my lifelong favourite musicians, and utterly cool cat, Mr Miles Davis, born on this day in 1926, in Alton, Illinois.

The Birth of the Cool 🎵🎺

It's 100 years today since Ernie Wise was born.

Half of Morecambe & Wise, the legendary comedy double act. Legendary in the UK at any rate.

Sadly, they're both long gone from this world - Eric in 1984, Ernie in 1999.

Eric’s centenary is this coming May.

And they might never have been – Ernie came close to ending the partnership in 1950.
