Rawls, Vandross, White...how will the babies get made now? I guess it's all up to Al Green.

Who's going to replace these people? Genuine music slips away.

Lou Rawls Live! -- from back in 1966 -- is one of those albums burned into my memory long ago by my parents' stereo. I haven't heard it in years, yet I can recall it as clearly as if I had. Lou at his downright coolest.
