Let's make this birthday one to remember.

82 years old (Born on March 02, 1943)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Jackson C. Frank! Your timeless melodies like "Blues Run the Game" and heartfelt honesty in songs such as "I Want To Be Alone" continue resonating deeply, influencing generations of musicians from Paul Simon's poetic storytelling to Nick Drake’s introspective charm.

Though you famously sang about solitude, your music has kept countless listeners company through life's ups and downs—proving that even when blues run rampant, a good tune can always chase them away. Here's hoping today you're surrounded by just enough friends (but not too many!) because we know how much you cherish being alone sometimes. Cheers!
