G.C. Cameron was born in Jackson, Mississippi on September 21, 1945, the day my father celebrated his 3rd birthday. After serving with the Marines in the Vietnam War, Cameron joined Motown act The Spinners as lead singer before going on to a solo career in 1971. Known as the man with "six different voices," G.C. had the ability to sound like a variety of popular artists of the day—like Smokey Robinson, The Isley Brothers, Curtis Mayfield, and even Carol Burnett.
