With a one-of-a-kind voice that could shift from sweet to sensual sensual in a single breath, Luther Vandross was the ultimate R&B love man of the ‘80s and ‘90s. A monarch of the Quiet Storm movement, the New York City native had an inescapable knack for turning out slow jams full of unadulterated emotion and silky-smooth crooning in equal measure. Whether he was working up a little locomotion with the sultry sway and bump of “Never Too Much” or gliding softly and soulfully through a heart-rending ballad like “A House Is Not a Home", Luther laid it all on the line.
