Our second birthday boy of the day is the legendary, Belgian jazz harmonica player Jean-Baptiste Frédéric Isidor, Baron Thielemans, better known as Toots. Toots would have turned 100 today and is sorely missed, for the beautiful music and a great sense of humor! Here's Toots' version of the Benny Golson classic "killer Joe" in an arrangement by Henk Meutgeert. It features Toots on harmonica and Ludwig Nuss on trombone, with special guest Jeff Hamilton on drums. ---------------------- Unser zweit
