Hope you enjoy. You'll Never Find
music *ping*
He has such an amazing voice. Thanks!
One of those great voices that can chill out any rough day.
great song, great voice
under-appreciated imo
I think his duet with Sam Cooke was pretty good despite how short his parts of the lyrics were.
I always liked this. His voice, followed by the piano.
I always liked Lou Rawls. His deep voice sure would stand out among today’s effeminate singers.
I will never forget the time Lou Rawls was performing on TV ‘live’ at an outdoor event and a bug flew right into his mouth. Yes, he had to skip a few words but picked the song back up and kept going.
When my band “Rampage” first went to Hollywood in 1975, we met our manager who also managed Lou Rawls (or, they were in the same firm). Just as we got to the front door, Lou came out and I got to meet him.
As we had driven into Hollywood, our song, “Didn’t Want to Have to Say Goodbye To You” came on over K-100 radio-—quite a rush.
Lou Rawls was my first concert - Chicago Opera House, 1967. Are any of you familiar with his first album, with Les MsCann? If you don’t know it, I think you’ll be amazed at his ability even then.
Not by me. I loved listening (and dancing) to Lou Rawls. "Lady Love" was another fave. Then there was "See You When I get There." Mmmm-m-m ... what a voice.
I'm not sure why disco gets such disrespect, but I loved it. It wasn't unusual for me to be on a disco dance floor on Friday and a country-western dance floor on Saturday. Good dancing music is good dancing music regardless of the genre.
