Born on March 5, 1946, the British singer turns 80 this year, marking a successful career that has spanned decades of memorable stage performances and notable on-screen appearances.
Raised in a highly artistic family whose parents both worked in the entertainment industry, being in front of an audience or appearing on screen was something he grew up around and quickly became comfortable with.
One of the biggest moments of his career came when the new wave pop song “One Night in Bangkok” was released from the 1984 concept album for the musical Chess.
