Sledge was elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005. In 1993, the Alabama Music Hall of Fame gave him the Lifework Award. In 1994, he released the album "Blue Night", which featured musicians such as Steve Cropper and Mick Taylor. The album was nominated for a Grammy Award and won the WC Handy Award.

I remember sitting in a small diner when I was 15 years old the first time I heard him sing When A Man Loves A Woman. We burned a needle through that record on the jukebox every time we got a dime. I've listened to him ever since. The voice of Southern Soul. He made his mark on music in an era when the music world was ruled by British Rockers, quite an accomplishment for the time. R.I.P. and thanks for the great music.

OMG No! I loved Percy Sledge, saw him many times. RIP Percy Sledge! Updated News: It is with great sadness that we must say goodbye to a true soul legend, a humble family man, and a beautiful human being. 'The King of Slow Soul,".Percy Sledge passed away peacefully early this morning at his home in Baton Rouge Louisiana surrounded by his wife Rosa and their children after a long battle with cancer. Just short of his 75th birthday this November, Percy rose to international stardom in the early 60's when people around the world first heard his unmistakable voice on the timeless hit "When A Man Loves A Woman" and won the hearts of millions. Since then he continued to record numerous albums and perform for his legions of fans around the globe until early last year. The Sledge Family wishes to convey they are truly greatful for all the love and support from all his fans and friends. Funeral arrangements are in progress.
