Happy Birthday to the legendary Luther Allison! You've been bending strings and breaking hearts since your days jamming with Howlin' Wolf, and we're still trying to catch our breath from those electrifying solos. Your guitar riffs have aged better than fine wine—though we suspect you've made a secret deal at the crossroads for eternal coolness.From backing James Cotton's harmonica wizardry to releasing groundbreaking albums that keep blues alive, your music continues to inspire generations. Here's hoping this birthday hits all the right notes—just like you always do on stage. Keep rocking, Luther; age is just another chord progression!
