Amazing singer even though I never really listened to him that much too be honest. I remember playing a very funky version of Boogie Down in my percussion group in school, good times.

RIP Al Jarreau

I'm not big jazz vocal fan, but everyone my age knows Al Jarreau and has heard his work.  What an amazing voice!
