One of these guys was born in 1943, the other in 1940. One is alive, the other is not. They are both British.
Update: Barry Garelick, who works for the government, got the answer to both:
Mick Jagger and
John Lennon. I know Salt of the Earth starts out with Keith's vocals, but it's such a great song I used it for Mick.
Well done, Barry. Keep those edureformers honest!
