Description
A remarkably versatile singer, Lou Rawls distinguished himself in soul, but was also adept at performing pop, blues, and jazz. This excellent 21-track Capitol compilation forgoes the latter two styles and draws from his 1960s/'70s recordings, presenting listeners with the deep-voiced performer's most accessible classics, including, of course, the gloriously smooth "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine," as well as the funky "Dead End Street" and a passionate version of "On Broadway." As an introduction to the effortlessly charming vocalist, this 2006 collection (released shortly after his death) is ideal. It's also a nice companion volume to another comp released the same year, BEST OF LOU RAWLS: THE CAPITOL JAZZ & BLUES SESSIONS.
