Posted by Linda Collier on 2006-11-10 14:14:12 Dear Wynton, I was sitting here listening to "Sister Cheryl" and realized that your birthday slipped past me this year. So, here is a belated birthday wish to you but no less heartfelt. Wishing you an ongoing celebration!
Posted by Jazzy Kathy on 2006-10-23 14:12:26 Dear Wynton, This is Eddie from Malaysia, I hope you can remember me, or the food in Malaysia... but most important is that I wanna thank you for making a stand for Jazz music, without you, I wouldn't have know what's Jazz is all about! It is a honor to meet you in person, you have no Idea how much you've impact my life! since I start to play trumpet, you've always been my hero! Happy belated Birthday to you!
Posted by Eddie Wen on 2006-10-22 17:14:31 You played UVic on your birthday Oct 18th, 2006, I sat seven rows from the font, your tpt aimed directly at my eye and ear level. Wow. You're the man. Thanks for your easy humour. Good luck, man.
Posted by Ron Wilson on 2006-10-21 11:33:31 Dear Wynton, 12 years ago I took a girl to one of your concerts, held on your birthday at Abravenel hall in Salt Lake City. It was our first date, but we have now been married 10 years last month. Your music has been and will always be magic to us. As a trumpet player I have worn out every disc I can get my hands on of yours and will continue to do so as long as the Lord lets me hear. Thank you for the music, for the passion, for the inspiration and for your extraordinary life. Happy Birthday and may your horn keep swinging forever.
Posted by Rick Tate on 2006-10-20 08:34:59 Happy Birthday Wynton! I'm a student trumpet player, and I'm aspiring to become a professional player like yourself. The first ever record I heard with trumpet playing was one of yours, and your playing has been an inspiration to me and has driven me to practice hours upon hours. I can't wait to see you perform tomorrow night (Vancouver BC). I'm sure the show will be great, and I'd love to be able to meet you after if you've got a couple minutes. -Cameron
Posted by Cameron Milligan on 2006-10-19 19:13:18 Happy Birthday Wynton, Thank you for everything. Thank you for over 20 years of outstanding contribution to the music. All the best Hubert Berlin, Germany

Posted by michael on 2006-10-19 10:51:31 HAPPY BIRTHDAY WYNTON! Your gig last night in Olympia was outstanding. The quintet was swinging and your performance was top notch. Maybe it was because I was in the second row (behind the little girl you kept teasing) but your live playing keeps getting better. The new material was the highlight of the night. If the rest of your upcoming album is as good, you've definitely hit the next plateau. Thanks for your Northwest tour stops and keep coming back; maybe you can play my town, Tacoma (Pantages Theatre?), next time around. Best Wishes Nick
Posted by Nick Kaminski on 2006-10-19 02:17:25 Dear Wynton- Andy Sheppard, host of CBC Radio 2 After Hours jazz programme just mentioned that today is your birthday - So I really thought it would be nice to try to find a way to reach you on the Web to wish you happy birthday So - HAPPY BIRTHDAY WYNTON, and many more of them, with lots of that great sound reaching out to so many souls. Thanks for all of it! All the best Dave Willis
Posted by Dave Willis on 2006-10-18 22:02:26 Wynton, Thank you so much for your music that has given me inspiration as a musician and joy as a human being. Have a wonderful birthday. Adam Loudin
Posted by Adam Loudin on 2006-10-18 21:59:43 God Bless, and may you have many more and keep inspiring all of us to practice and keep playing gigs!!!!!
Posted by Neil King on 2006-10-18 20:04:34 Your music has been around me since I can remember. Your Carnival CD made me want to play trumpet, and it still makes me want to be a better player. "The Magic Hour" was my first jazz CD years ago, I always wanted to be able to play in a jazz setting. To me it seemed silly to live in New Orleans and not have that ability. I am finally working on being able to improvise, and I always go back to that first CD to hear what inspired me years ago. Of course, when I play Cherokee it sounds nothing like when you play Cherokee. Success is fueled by dreams, thanks for giving so many something to dream about.

Posted by monty on 2006-10-18 19:46:08 One more time....Happy Birthday Wynton!!!!!! It isn't only your musical capacities that causes admiration;there are also, and primarily, your human qualities. All the best. MTS
Posted by MTS on 2006-10-18 19:21:24 Happy healthy respect for those hard working precious lyrical lips, which seem to be always traveling on that life renewing day, for the propagation, appreciation and enjoyment of the music.You can never be thanked enough for what you have done in that department. Happy Birthday that way, and many more with those lips!
Posted by Frederique on 2006-10-18 18:58:40 Happy Birthday Wynton, Can't believe you are turning 45. It seems as though it were yesterday when I discovered you in the early eighties, while listening to WCLK Jazz Radio in Atlanta. You were playing "How Deep Is The Ocean" with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Your extraordinary technic and fire in your tone caused me to pull over to the side of the road to await the DJ'S annoucement of who the artist was. With the revelation that it was you I ran out and bought that album and all of the others that I could find with you being featured. From that moment I have followed your career closely reading every article that I could find about you and I have attended almost every concert in Atlanta that you have played from Davage Auditorium@Clark Atlanta Umiversity, Wheat Street Baptist Church to the Memorial Arts Center. Your artistry and emphasis on the rightful place of Jazz in our culture has caused me to study the music more closely and appreciate its roots and development. As a recreational trumpeter, I was inspired to buy a new horn and re commit myself to the serious study of the instrument and music 10 years ago. (you've even provided me with a couple of tips after those times that I spoke with you after your concerts) You are an inspiration to many because your honesty, integrity and committment to excellence. Enjoy you day!
Posted by lee on 2006-10-18 17:40:13 Happy Birthday Wynton! Thank you so much for all the years. When I was six years old, I watched you win your first two Grammy Awards with my family. As I grew into adulthood, I have continued to follow your career and music. One year, I taught a unit about great Black artist during the Harlem Renaissance, and who was narrorating the piece on Romare Bearden, but you! I play your music in my classrooms and hopefully it will inspire future musicians or solicit conversation. I truly appreciate your contribution to society through the arts. I look forward to seeing you at the All Rise Concert series, here in Chicago. You and your family have inspired me on multiple levels throughout my professional career. I would like to personally thank your mother and brother (Mboya) for inspiring my future Ph.D research in Special Education. I would love to meet both of you in the near future. Be Blessed, Danielle
Posted by Danielle on 2006-10-18 13:48:45 Dear Wynton, Hamburg's biggest fan will light a candle and his music player tonight to celebrate! I'll never forget the sweetness in your gesture when, one October evening some years ago in cold Braunschweig, Germany, I gave you some photographs from Marciac that summer – and you held them to your heart, tenderly. Nor will I forget my first-ever glass of Armagnac together with you at the hotel bar in Vitoria, Spain. And of course I'll never forget how we danced with all those young musicians till the wee hours in that barnhouse in Schleswig-Holstein after your triumphant concert of All Rise ... Thank you for many, many, many hours of shining glory to my ears. Together, let's sail towards maturity ... All my best, Christof
Posted by Christof Rostert on 2006-10-18 11:33:34 I hope that you are enjoying your life to the fullest and that you continue to grow, in every area. Happy Birthday!
Posted by Eustacia on 2006-10-18 11:28:28 Dear Mr. Marsalis, Happy Birthday from my family and I. I'm a sophomore at Loyola University Chicago and your music has truly been inspirational. Your music has helped me during my studying and I thank you for that. Thank you for blessing us with your gift.
Posted by Mykhall Douglas on 2006-10-18 11:18:46 Happy 45th from the Fan Club... the seventies/sixties weren't THAT long ago, were they? Passing trends passed so quickly ... We tend to divide the works of a great, transcendent artist into different periods... "Blue, Rose, African, and Cubist...(analytic/synthetic)!" Picasso said this about having birthdays, "It takes a long time to grow young!" We are grateful, Wynton, for all you've accomplished and have yet to do. Best Wishes to you and your family from ours! Glo, Robert, and Jordan.
Posted by gloria on 2006-10-18 11:00:12 Mr. Marsalis, God has chosen this day for the greatest trumpeter and mentor ever to live on this planet. I don't think that the human language created a word or a phrase to express the gratitude that I have, for everything you've done for me and my carrier. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You may be forty five, but you're going to live forever! Chris Cigolea.
Posted by Chris Cigolea on 2006-10-18 09:28:35 "To me, fair friend, you never can be old" Take care. Careba

Posted by careba on 2006-10-18 08:23:44 Wynton, I admire your tenaciousness and your ability to inspire so many. Yours is a gift that goes far beyond your prodigious musical ability/talent. Thanks for all you do. Keep on. Happy Birthday Dear Hero, Happy Birthday to you. JG
Posted by Jurzy Girl on 2006-10-18 06:41:15 Dear Wynton, Your music has given me artistic inspiration for over twenty years. My heartfelt thanks for your music and all you do to inspire, encourage and help others. I feel honored to be of this generation seeing you perform. May you have an extra special happy birthday today. I look forward to seeing what the next 45 years brings! Take care and enjoy your special day! Always, Sonalii
Posted by Sonalii on 2006-10-18 05:56:15 Thanks for the inspiration! Glad you're born-if not, I'd still be ALL about Mr. Davis. Have a good one. Happy Birthday! Love, Jess
