Soul Singer Barry White Dies At 58
Singer Had Been Undergoing Dialysis Treatment

Velvet-voiced R&B crooner Barry White, renowned for his lush baritone and carnal lyrics that oozed sex appeal on songs such as "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe," died Friday morning, his manager said.

White, who had suffered kidney failure from years of high blood pressure, died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center around 9:30 a.m., said manager Ned Shankman. White was 58.

White had been undergoing dialysis treatment and had been hospitalized since last September.

White's work epitomized seductive disco music. The heavyset musician enjoyed three decades of fame for songs like "You're the First, the Last, My Everything" and "It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next To Me."

The seductive sound of his deep bass voice has not only been featured in his music, but also in radio and television advertisements.

White, longtime producer/friend Jack Perry, adviser Abby Schroeder, and Shankman were preparing a "duets" album for release on Def Soul later this year.

White is survived by eight children, grandchildren, and his companion, Catherine Denton.
