Place of birth

edit

According to this detailed article/biography, he was born in Memphis, Tenessee, and then moved to California: http://www.songpoemmusic.com/drake/: "He was born in 1912 in Memphis, and lived for a few years in Ripley, Tennessee, near the Arkansas border. (Other legendary recording artists who spent their early years in Ripley include Peetie Wheatstraw, aka The Devil's Son-In-Law, The High Sheriff Of Hell, and Tina Turner.) A chronic asthma condition led Drake's family to move him to California when he was seven, first to the Bay Area, then soon afterwards settling in Los Angeles."

Now I see that the already existing external link: http://www.spectropop.com/recommends/index2004.htm, also has him as "A native of Memphis, Tennessee". Hoverfish Talk 18:35, 2 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
