Walter Murphy is celebrating his 73rd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer-songwriter Walter Murphy (A Fifth of Beethoven, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 73rd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Murphy, a cultural icon
Born Walter Anthony Murphy, Jr. in New York on December 19, 1952, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Murphy'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 Walter hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Walter Murphy as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 73.
Happy Birthday, Walter, you're the best!
