Happy Birthday to the man who made everyone shout "Ooh Poo Pah Doo!"—the iconic Jessie Hill! Your timeless New Orleans rhythm not only sold over 800,000 copies but also became a Mardi Gras anthem, instantly bringing smiles and dance moves that probably defied gravity.From clubs to grand parades, your music still echoes down Bourbon Street as loudly today as when it first hit airwaves. On your birthday we celebrate you—the master of glorious chaos—that brought saxophones roaring and hips swinging. Here's hoping wherever you're jamming these days in musical heaven, you're keeping their feet dancing nonstop!
