Very sad news tonight. It seems he never fully recovered from his stroke in 2003. American music has lost a legend.

Oh my that is so sad! We have deffinatley lost a legend.

Way too soon for him to go Very sad.

He was one of the best ... My mum had all of his albums. All classics now .

Very sad. But they said he "never fully recovered from a stroke two years ago," so as we say about our beloved fur friends -- I'm sure he's happy & whole again now.

That is so sad. He was an absolute legend and had an amazing voice. May he rest in peace.

Oh good grief i'm so shocked to read this I loved his music and have a few of his albums and i even saw him in concert when he came to the UK, and a fantastic concert he'd put on as well

Such a brilliant artist who's music brings back so many happy memories of my ex boyfriend

He'll still live on in my heart thats for sure

I was at work last night and "Dance with my Father" came on the radio... I started to tear up as I sang the song because, obviously, it upsets me, what with is going on with my father... Well, one of my customers noticed and said, "You know he passed away, tonight, right?" and I broke into tears... It's so sad because he was amazing... RIP Luther...

....R.I.P. ...... so young...

How sad, I didn't even know until I read this post RIP Luthur
