Let's make this birthday one to remember.

91 years old (Born on January 17, 1934)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Cedar Walton! Your fingers danced across piano keys with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, creating timeless grooves that still swing today. From your iconic compositions like "Bolivia" and "Ugetsu," you've given jazz lovers countless reasons to tap their feet—and occasionally spill drinks in excitement.

As a composer and bandleader extraordinaire, you’ve led ensembles through decades of hard-bop brilliance. Whether it was crafting intricate melodies or inspiring younger musicians on stage, your legacy remains as vibrant as ever. Here's hoping this birthday swings harder than an Art Blakey drum solo—cheers to another year filled with rhythm and laughter!
