Happy 57th Birthday to Morris Day (December 13, 1957) American musician, composer and actor. He is best known as the lead singer of The Time. In high school, Day was in a band with Prince and André Cymone and the trio formed an early band managed by Days mother called Grand Central, later renamed Champagne. The Times most prolific period came in 1984, when Day played the antagonist to Prince in his feature films Purple Rain and Graffiti Bridge, which helped establish Days playboy stage presence. Typically escorted by his valet, Jerome (Jerome Benton), Day won fans with his exaggerated vanity (Jerome bring me my mirror!) and strutting bravado (Aint nobody bad like me!). The Time is best remembered for the infectious singles Jungle Love and the Rufus Thomas influenced, The Bird. Day has remained a popular concert draw since the late 1990s, fronting a revamped lineup of The Time, including originals Jellybean Johnson on drums and Monte Moir on keyboards.
