Percy Sledge, who soared from part-time singer and hospital orderly to lasting fame with his aching, forlorn performance on the classic "When a Man Loves a Woman," died Tuesday in Louisiana. He was 74.

Dr. William "Beau" Clark, coroner for East Baton Rouge Parish, confirmed to the Associated Press
that Sledge died early Tuesday, about an hour after midnight, of natural causes in hospice care.
