David Frishberg (23 March 1933 – 17 November 2021) was an American jazz pianist, vocalist, composer, and lyricist.
Top Billing
There are wonderful songs you should hear
From Frishberg’s successful career,
But his “I’m Just a Bill”,
Though showing his skill,
Has eclipsed all his others, I fear.

Dane Rudhyar (23 March 1895 – 13 September 1985) was a French-born American author, composer, and humanistic astrologer. He was a pioneer of modern transpersonal astrology.
The Planets
Arguing that astrology is not essentially predictive but rather productive of intuitive insights, The Astrology of Personality was one of the most influential tracts of "free-will" astrology, despite being written in the dense, circuitous style that characterizes much of Rudhyar's writing. -- Wikipedia
Dane Rudhyar will challenge your ears
By exploring at music’s frontiers.
And just try to make sense
Of his prose (which is dense)
On the role of the Heavenly Spheres.
