2017 would have been the 100th birthday of Ohio born Rat Packer Dean Martin (born June 7, 1917). And then I came up with the idea of other great musicians who would have turned 100 (sorry, John Lee Hooker, you got cut for time). So, that's why we have Dean Martin, plus Desi Arnaz, Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie, and Lena Horne included.
