Percy Sledge. Singer Percy Sledge (1940-2015) was one of the most identifiable voices in the genre of country-soul, which emerged from the multicultural working-class environment of Muscle Shoals in the mid-1960s. Recognized for his keening, forlorn vocal quality and fluid phrasing, Sledge's voice bears a stylistic kinship with high-lonesome country singers.
Percy Sledge, the R&B belter whose biggest hit, When a Man Loves a Woman, became a cornerstone of soul music, died Tuesday. He was 73. Sledge died in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, said Stephanie Price of the East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner's Office.
