I fell in love with Percy when I heard "When A Man Loves A Woman". Isn't he great? "Take The Time To Know Her" must have been the flip side of that 45, then I had to get the album.
I lent this album to my uncle for 1 month and when he gave it back I told him to keep it as it was so worn out from him playing it so much. Miss you Uncle Ray! Love you RIP
My mother was a big Percy Sledge fan and his music grew on me over the years myself. Sadly she passed away this week at the age of 52. Percy and his music bring back good memories.
my mom had one of those old style record players it was about a mile long she would put percy or ray on an it would put all three of us sound to sleep til this day i love percy!
i had the honor to meet percy sledge and his wife in the early 80's in a little bayou town called venice,la...this small cajun bar was packed ppl setting on the bar, outside there were ppl for as far as you could see to hear him sing...he sounded the same in that lil bar as he does on his records.they were wonderful ppl to meet. this man never got the the honor he was due for such a beautiful voice.
He says *I'm still waiting for something I cannot have. Man that is what is called unrequited love. what a painful thing to endure. that line says it all and if you been there this is your song
I be singin dis in school...
