Such a legend. Seen him leading the Arkestra in 2019 at almost 95 and he was still killing it. I swear, music sustains that man. Happy belated birthday to him.

Yes, all the best to Mr. Allen. I hope Ramblin' Jack Elliott, whom I saw when he was in his early 80s (he's 92 now and still playing shows), can also hit the century mark. And I hope I didn't jinx him by saying that.
