Spencer Davis
Spencer David Nelson Davies (born 17 July 1939) is a British musician and multi-instrumentalist, and the founder of the 1960s rock band The Spencer Davis Group. Davis dropped the E in Davies and became Davis because in England and in the US his last name was pronounced "Daveys" and not Davis as in the Welsh pronunciation.

“Guilt pins a fig-leaf; Innocence is its own adorning.”
—Anne Spencer (1882–1975)
“Men insist that they don’t mind women succeeding so long as they retain their “femininity”.

—Elizabeth Gould Davis (b. 1910)
