“The Silkiest Chops”

I was sad to see the passing of Lou Rawls last week but I hadn’t planed on blogging about it. That is, until I read this story and came across this quote:

Sinatra once said that Rawls possessed the "silkiest chops in the singing game."

Heh, that’s pure Sinatra. Although not always the biggest fan, I miss all these guys.
