Roger McGuinn
James Roger McGuinn (born July 13, 1942) is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, who was born as James Joseph McGuinn III in Chicago, Illinois. He changed his name in 1967 because a guru in Indonesia said that a new name would vibrate better with the universe. The guru sent Jim the letter "R" and asked him to send back ten names starting with that letter. Because Jim was into gadgets and Sci-Fi, he sent names like "Rocket" and "Ramjet."
