Today in Music – Feb 9, 1982 – Vibraphonist Behn Gillece is born in New Jersey! (with video)
One of the reasons that I explore the daily birthdays at All About Jazz is that it gives me names of musicians that I don’t know, like yesterday, when I discovered Pawel Kaczmarczyk the great young Polish jazz pianist. The odds of coming across his name elsewhere are pretty low. Anyway, the first name on the birthday list is actually someone I already knew, but only because when I was checking the birthdays at All About Jazz, I saw his latest album on the same page! That artist is Behn Gillece and the album is Top Shelf.
