LOS ANGELES Silken-voiced crooner Lou Rawls, who started singing at age 7 in a gospel choir and grew into a beloved blues, jazz and R&B performer, died on Friday at age 72 after a battle with lung cancer, his spokesman said. Rawls, a singer with a four-octave range known for such signature hits as "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine," "Lady Love" and "Love is a Hurtin' Thing," died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, spokesman Paul Shefrin said. Shefrin quoted Rawls' family as saying he was 72 years old, even though some reference books place his age at 70.
