I Became A Fan In 1968
I bought the classic LOU RAWLS LIVE album my sophomore year in college. We almost wore it out. Nobody can quite do what Lou Rawls can do with ANY song. That deep, soulful baritone makes every note a fat, juicy musical piece of poetry that just stays with you. And in this turn on an old tune from the Christmas Cocktails compilation, you hear why Lou turned songs like Tobacco Road and Saint James Infirmary into timeless soul/blues classics. Simply said and sung - Christmas Is.
