Happy Birthday, Charles Turner! Another year, another high note—much like your legendary trumpet solos that jazz fans still adore. Clearly you found the secret to turning each passing year into a swinging harmony!Your days with Jimmy Dorsey had us tapping toes; your unforgettable evenings alongside Ella Fitzgerald still make our hearts hum; and let’s not forget those vibrant performances shared with Count Basie—classics forever etched in jazz history. Today we celebrate you: musician extraordinaire whose timeless tunes keep us smiling brighter than ever.
Keep jazzy, stay classy—and may this birthday be as spectacularly smooth as your signature melodies!
