Biography

Soul singer Lou Rawls made his name in the 70s with a string of hits such as "Lady Love", "See You When I Git There" and the indomitable "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine". He didn't have to dig deep to win over audiences; his four-octave, honey-drizzled voice freed him up to concentrate on smooth-singing and lady-killing. Rawls was also known for his charity work, and is thought to have… Read more in Amazon's Lou Rawls Store

Editorial Reviews

The death of Lou Rawls on January 6, 2006 silenced on of the most distinctive voices in music. With his rich, resonant baritone, he could sing gospel, blues, jazz, pop and soul with equal authority and success. This collection, drawn from 14 albums, covers the greatest blues and jazz performance of his Capitol years (1962-70) and finds him in the company of such great arrangers as Benny Carter, Onzy Matthews, Benny Golson and H.B. Barnum. Blue Note. 2006.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow....Soul with Blues !, August 7, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Best of Lou Rawls: The Capitol Jazz & Blues Sessions (Audio CD)
Always thought of Lou Rawls as a Pop/Blues Singer. He's much more then that. This CD shows his Blues credentials in no uncertain terms. He truly has one of the best voices regardless of genre of music. His phrasing is strictly his own and highly personalized. Anyone who enjoys Blues with a lot of Soul should buy this CD.
