I agree, but some others might not, if they have the balls to say it, I'll open it for a vote.

What about North Carolina

Thelonious Monk
Roberta Flack
John Coltrane
James Taylor
Tori Amos

looks good to me, anymore from that state to add to the ballot?

yeah.....Tina should get TN....the hell with Elvis smile


We have room for both. Elvis was born in Tupelo, Miss.


I think Tina Turner, like Elvis Presley, was born in Mississippi and moved to Tennessee. I could be wrong though.

Nope, I'm wrong. I edited my post.....

Tina Turner

(Annie Mae Bullock)
rhythm and blues singer
Born: 11/26/1939
Birthplace: Nutbush Borough, Tennessee

I guess we're stuck with Elvis here in Mississippi. lol What a minute, what about B.B. King? lol

OK, I edited again after doing some looking for B.B. King.....

The year was 1925 ... In the area of Mississippi known as the "Delta", a baby was born on September 16 in a small sharecropper's cabin near the town of Itta Bena. The proud parents of the newborn baby boy were Albert and Nora Ella King, hardworking sharecropping farmers who had lived in Mississippi all of their lives.

Scratch Elvis....I choose B.B. King for Mississippi.

Midler is from Hawaii... I think she is a lock unless anyone can come up with another contender from Hawaii.

Hawaii goes to Bette Midler.


YES! YES! YES!

Otherwise Yvonne Elliman (If I Can't Have You, Hello Stranger, I Don't Know How to Love Him) should get at least an honorable mention! Although she's no Baby Divine, but still!
