Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on October 21, 1947)

Happy Birthday to the incomparable Jerry Bergonzi—a jazz legend who doesn't just blow smoke, he blows magic through that sax! Whether swinging alongside the great Dave Brubeck, blowing minds with intricate bebop solos, or keeping jazz authentic and deliciously lean with Not Fat Records—your groove remains ageless.

Jerry, your innovative spirit has influenced generations of players, proving that timeless talent truly ages like fine wine—or at least good jazz vinyl. Today we celebrate you: a musician whose riffs leave listeners dizzy and delighted. May your birthday bring laughter as cool as your smoothest solos. Keep swingin’, maestro!
