Just saw it on www.cnn.com Breaking News. He's been suffering from lung cancer. Another good sounding deep voice singer passes away. Good deep voice singers are rare and he and Barry White were the best. R.I.P.

Re: Lou Rawls passed away
Lou Rawls was the man.... "You'll Never Find (Another Love Like Mine)" was the absolute jam, and an anthem for brothas who had chicks go astray on 'em.... He will be missed. I just heard about him being sick the other day on the Tom Joyner Show, and they were saying he was trying to get his marriage annulled.Comment

Re: Lou Rawls passed away
wow I didn't realize he was sick.
While I didn't like everything Rawls put out (after all he was a rival to Marvin Gaye) he still made some very good jams. In fact I listened to a Lou Rawls song just yesterday.
