Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on July 28, 1955)

Happy Birthday, Gerald Veasley! From grooving alongside the legendary Joe Zawinul in the '80s and '90s to launching your own soulful journey with albums like "Soul Control" and "Your Move," you've always kept our toes tapping. Your bass lines are smoother than jazz club coffee—and just as addictive!

Here's wishing you another year filled with funky rhythms, unforgettable melodies, and plenty of laughter along the way. May your solos stay timelessly cool, your grooves forever fresh, and may every note remind us why you're still one of jazz's finest treasures. Keep slappin' that bass—you're aging better than vintage vinyl!
