Freddie Jackson, the Grammy-nominated R&B singer whose 1980s ballads 'Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times Sake)' and 'You Are My Lady' became staples of quiet-storm radio and helped define an era of romantic soul, has died aged 70.
His family confirmed his death in a statement posted to his official Instagram account on Monday. Jackson died that day, three days after his 70th birthday. No cause of death has been disclosed.
