Not sure why this thread's been put in the 80s section, as his main body of work was mostly confined to the late 60s to 70s...

Anyway, I digress...a wonderful singer and a great loss...

He did have 2 hits in the 80's (You're My Blessing / Wind Beneath My Wings).  Not big hits, but his version of Wind Beneath My Wings IMO KO'd the later version by Bette Midler
