Today in Jazz – Wayne Shorter’s 81st Birthday! (Aug 25, 1933)
So you can probably count on you fingers how many musicians are still performing beyond the age of 80. Two that I can think of off the top of my head are B.B. King and Tony Bennett, and when Wayne Shorter, Wayne Shorter joined that group last year and this year Wayne will kick off a European Tour on October 16th in Croatia. Among the destinations are Sweden, Denmark, Spain and Portugl! Wayne was born in Newark, New Jersey on August 25,1933.
