1) Peter Lorre (from the Maltese Falcon). Born in 1904
2) Fats Domino (singing Walkin’ to New Orleans). Born in 1928
3) Tom Brokaw (from his final night as anchor). Born in 1940.
4) Diana Krall (singing Fly Me to the Moon from her CD, The Very Best of Diana Krall). Born in 1964.
5) Dan Ackroyd (on Saturday Night Live in 1976). Born in 1952.
6) Tom Jones (singing It’s Not Unusual from the CD, Along Came Jones). Born in 1940.
7) Dick Wilson (as Mr. Whipple). Born in 1916.
