Bruce Channel is celebrating his 85th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Bruce Channel (Hey! Baby, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 85th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Born Bruce McMeans in Jacksonville on November 28, 1940, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Channel's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Bruce hasn't done.
