Let's make this birthday one to remember.

Happy Birthday, Geoff! Ever since you dazzled the jazz world by winning the 1974 International Association for Jazz Education contest, you've been hitting all the right notes. Your compositions have swung their way into our hearts and playlists, proving that jazz isn't just music—it's a lifestyle you've mastered with style.

Here's to another year of improvising life's melodies and harmonizing success with laughter. May your birthday be filled with as much rhythm and joy as your timeless tunes bring to us all. Keep swinging, Geoff—you're not getting older; you're just becoming a classic standard everyone loves to play!
