* His voice has been described as an 'elegant, seductive croon.'  Consider that he and his contemporary, David Bowie, influenced a generation with both their music and their appearances.  He has also been described as 'an art object' that should hang in the Tate (Tate being a British museum).  He formed a great band in 1970 and had a 13 year run with the group.  Only the pandemic has slowed down his touring at age 74.  Name the artist, and his former band...
