Let's make this birthday one to remember.

58 years old (Born on April 27, 1967)

Happy Birthday, Tommy Smith! From blowing minds (and saxophones) in the '80s to signing with Blue Note Records while most of us were still figuring out adulthood, you've always been ahead of your time. Your smooth melodies and award-winning performances have made jazz cooler than ever—no small feat considering it was already pretty cool.

Here's wishing you another year filled with soulful solos, standing ovations, and fewer people asking if you can play "Careless Whisper." Keep swinging strong; may your reed never squeak and your improvisations remain legendary. Cheers to a timeless talent who keeps hitting all the right notes!
