Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on April 04, 1963)

Happy Birthday to the ever-grooving Benny Green! From swinging hard alongside jazz legends like Betty Carter and rolling smoothly with Art Blakey's iconic Jazz Messengers, you've truly perfected the art of bopping harder than anyone else. Whether you're making those ivories dance or effortlessly dazzling us with your timeless solos, you continue to ignite that infectious smile—the trademark magic we all adore.

May this year bring even more unforgettable gigs and fresh rhythms; after all these years in jazz royalty, it's clear—you don't just age gracefully, Benny—you swing elegantly through time! Keep beboppin', keep smiling—happy birthday maestro!
