Happy Birthday, Johnny Zell! You really "blew us away" playing trumpet classics like “Hot Lips” and the unforgettable swing of “String of Pearls.” Every time you hit those high notes on The Lawrence Welk Show, balloons popped with envy!May your birthday be as smooth and timeless as a classic jazz solo—full of laughter that's louder than brass section solos, joyful moments that rival any standing ovation you've earned. Keep swinging into vibrant adventures; after all these years in music's spotlight, clearly you're still golden…just like your horn! Here's to another year hitting life's sweetest notes perfectly in tune.
