It’s a big day for musical birthdays: Reigning pop queen Billie Eilish turns 21, former pop queen Christina Aguilera is 42, enigmatic songstress Sia turns 47, big-dog rapper DMX would have been 52, guitarist Geordie Walker from Killing Joke is 64, guitarist Elliott Easton of The Cars reaches 69, singer Martha Johnson of Canada’s own Muffins is 72, Be Bop Deluxe majordomo Bill Nelson hits 74, and — last but not least — Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards turns 79 years young. It’s not nearly as busy on the new music front — there are just 65 albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, vinyl reissues and cassettes on the way:
