You'll Never Find...


...Another singer as good as this one, Lou Rawls, who passed today (Friday).

I liked Lou Rawls' music, mainly because my mom and dad used to play his music when I was a kid... and because it's good music. Period.

About three years ago, I was with some friends at a casino in Laughlin, Nevada, and we saw Lou Rawls walking through the space, being friendly, talking to everyone... like he was just a regular everyday kinda guy. It was cool.

And it was cool that he led the United Negro College Fund telethon every year.

We lost another good one today.
