“You’ll Never Find Another Love Like Mine”

We’ll never find another singer like Lou Rawls again either.

Lou Rawls died today at the age of 72 of lung cancer. He started singing at the age of 7 in a gospel choir. He won 3 Grammy awards, and was nominated 13 times, his career lasted over 40 years.

His rich voice spanned several octaves as well as several genres. Blues, Gospel, Jazz, Pop, Soul, you name it, he could sing it.

Lou, when I get to heaven, I look forward to playing my guitar while you sing praises to our Lord. See you sometime on the other side.
