92 years old (Born on December 09, 1932)
Happy Birthday, Donald Byrd! Let's celebrate you—master trumpeter and timeless jazz pioneer. Ever since your groundbreaking album "Free Form" blew minds (and brass sections!) in 1962, we know the real reason for global warming—they haven’t cooled off from your hot solos yet!We also toast your enduring impact on legends like Herbie Hancock; rumor has it that after you inspired his artistry, even Hancock’s piano keys bowed down a bit lower to honor you. Keep soaring with style—you've firmly secured ‘Byrd-watching’ as every jazz lover's favorite pastime. Here's hoping each birthday hits higher notes than the last!
