Let's make this birthday one to remember.

75 years old (Born on January 23, 1950)

Happy Birthday, John Greaves! May your bass lines remain as delightfully unpredictable and timelessly quirky as your legendary days with Henry Cow. From avant-garde grooves to whimsical collaborations alongside Peter Blegvad, you've always kept us guessing—and tapping our feet in confusion.

Here's hoping this year brings you even more musical adventures that defy categorization (and possibly gravity). Keep those strings humming and the creativity flowing; after all these years, you're still proving there's nothing quite like a Welsh bassist who can make complexity sound effortless. Cheers to another spin around the sun filled with laughter, inspiration—and fewer broken strings!
