Percy Sledge – R&R Hall of Famer

I had an opportunity to photograph music legend Percy Sledge over the weekend. He was performing at a county fair in southwest Virginia. My family was gathering in the town where the fair took place to celebrate my Dad’s 70th birthday. What a great performer! When he belted out “When A Man Loves A Woman” as his closing song, the audience roared.

Percy Sledge has been performing since the mid 1960’s and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.
