87 years old (Born on April 24, 1937)
Happy Birthday to the legendary Joe Henderson! Your saxophone solos, especially that unforgettable masterpiece on Horace Silver's "Song for My Father," still have us grooving decades later. You've blown more minds with your horn than most people do in a lifetime—talk about lung power!From collaborating with jazz giants like Herbie Hancock and McCoy Tyner to inspiring generations of musicians worldwide, you've truly set the bar high (and kept it swinging). Here's wishing you another year filled with smooth melodies, endless applause—and hopefully fewer requests from friends asking if you'll play at their cousin’s wedding. Keep blowing strong!
