He said,
If you’re gonna play the game, boy
You gotta learn to play it right
You’ve got to know when to hold ’em
Know when to fold ’em
Know when to walk away
And know when to runRIP LEGEND pic.twitter.com/hSd0nYBNjo

One of the few genuine music icons whose voice is not some auto voice machine.
A distant special breed.
May you dwell in the secret place of the most high. You moved on, never die in the heart of those who were inspired by your soulful voice.
