Let's make this birthday one to remember.

89 years old (Born on May 04, 1935)

Happy Birthday, Don! Another year jazzed up and swinging by—just like your legendary tours across Japan. Rumor has it you're single-handedly responsible for a nationwide shortage of piano keys in Tokyo; apparently, you've worn them all out with those incredible solos!

Your music continues to bridge oceans and cultures effortlessly. Fans from Osaka to Okinawa still debate whether it's your dazzling improvisations or charming stage presence that keeps bringing you back overseas—but we know the truth: sushi addiction is real.

Here's wishing another fantastic year filled with applause, laughter, endless encores—and plenty more frequent flyer miles!
