Michel Jonasz is celebrating his 79th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-musician-actor Michel Jonasz (La Boîte de jazz, Joueurs de blues, Super Nana, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 79th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Born in Drancy on January 21, 1947, Michel Jonasz's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Jonasz'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 Michel hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Michel Jonasz as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 79.

Happy Birthday, Michel, you're the best!
