I know...I know......but I was brought up with his distinct sound and have seen him live a few times.
Has to be one of the greatest singers ever.
I`ll miss his music for sure.

Threads merged.

Real shame - he was only 54, although I think he had suffered a serious stroke a couple of years ago.

OK, just seen the BBC thread. Another icon passes away. His music brought a richness and sweetness to my formative years that will live with me forever. So sad that he passed away at such a young age.

Rest in peace, Luther.

A legend dies

'Never too much' is one of my favourite songs ever and the song I always tout at the 'one more' tune I'd play if I could DJ.
