Frank Sinatra described Rawls as having “the classiest singing and silkiest chops in the singing game.”
@aeonise3 ай бұрын
From the man who made his name on "classy" and "silky", he knew of what he spoke. For all that people call Steve Perry "The Voice", that name always conjures Rawls' voice for me. He just had a resonance and richness that stands atop the many fantastic baritones and basses of the era. Speaking of which, I really miss that. It seems like through the 80s, deeper male voices were pushed out of the spotlight in music.

I’m 69, you’re watching television programs. If you want to talk about what we were listening to it was everything. By the way, I’m white. When I came home from school, I was listening to Motown , Southern rock, straight rock ‘n’ roll,. It was all on the charts, and we listened to everything and loved it all!!!!!!!.To this day 90% of what I listen to is mid 60s to mid 70s. The greatest 10 years of music.EVER!

Lou appeared in the Blues Brothers 2000 movie as a member of the Louisiana Gator Boys band who are definitely worth watching because every single member of the band is an actual musical legend: Jeff Baxter, Gary US Bonds, Eric Clapton, Clarence Clemons, Jack DeJohnette, Bo Diddley, John Faddis, Isaac Hayes, Dr. John, BB King, Charles Musselwhite, Billy Preston, Koko Taylor, and more.

62 here, graduated HS in 79. We just never knew how great we had it. It was just turn on the radio and it was good stuff all day every day. We didn't really care what people wanted to call the kind of music, we liked it all. The two Saturday shows most of us watched were American Bandstand and Soul Train. The stations knew we wanted to see both, so they never scheduled them at the same time, one would be on at 10, the other 11 (or something similar) But the smoothest man in the room was always Don Cornelius (RIP)

My Mom met Lou Rawls in the elevator in the Pink Palace Hotel the night she arrived in Hawaii and waiting for our Dad to leave Vietnam for one week of R&R with our Mom , the year was 1969. Rest in Peace to my parents. My Sister in Law, Sheila who lives in Greensboro, NC said this is her favorite song. I loved this song too ! ….and I loved Soul Train ! The 1970’s and 80’s were about to be truly Amazing musically. ❤ The 1980’s became intergrated and it was a great decade. I was a nurse in the military and met my husband in Germany who was also in the US Army.

I too am remembering my younger years and listening to Lou Rawls. Anyone on here remember seeing Lou Rawls guest appearence on the western sitcom...The Big Valley? He is quite the actor too. He was hired by the Barkleys to work on their ranch. On a cattle drive while they were camping one night and all the men were gathered around the fire and beyond, Lou Rawl's character broke out singing "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and it was beautiful. I do believe you can find that clip on you tube.

A supreme talent. This one was #1 on the Billboard Hot 100! As far as these television dance shows are concerned, your observations about demographics are pretty accurate. It must be said however, that American Bandstand was an exception. That show, from the very beginning in the 1950's, featured a much more diverse crowd than was typical of the era. That was at the insistence of the show's host, Dick Clark. I always felt that "Soul Train" was a push back, of sorts. They did, however, feature the occasional white artist.
