Happy birthday to Bill Frisell—the guitar wizard who's been jazzing up our playlists since the days vinyl ruled the world, hanging with musical mavericks like Elvis Costello and John Zorn! From genre-bending jam sessions in New York's downtown scene to playing intricate melodies that make listeners grin wider than his signature glasses, you've reinvented music more often than most people update their wardrobe.Recently, your albums continue topping critics' lists—proof you're not just classic; you're forever cool. May your strings never tire, your solos always wander delightfully off-script, and please keep making us wonder: "How does he STILL sound so fresh?"
