84 years old (Born on October 05, 1940)
Happy Birthday, Bob Heil! You're the guy who made guitars speak louder and clearer than most politicians. Thanks to your incredible Talk Box invention, generations of rockers—from Frampton’s unmistakable riffs on "Do You Feel Like We Do," to Joe Walsh making his guitar clearly pronounce its 'life's been good' statements—have literally found their voice.From revolutionizing concert sound systems that keep stadiums rocking without blowing eardrums (much appreciated) to engineering wizardry that's stood the test of time, you're truly an audio legend. Here's hoping another year brings you more brilliant ideas—and perhaps fewer talking instruments arguing backstage!
Rock on forever!
