Don Williams, the legendary country music singer whose smash hits include “Tulsa Time” and “It Must Be Love,” has died.
The Texas native, who as known as the “Gentle Giant” for his soft vocal style, was 78 at the time of his death on Sept. 8. His death follows a “short illness,” according to a news release.
With more than 20 albums to his name and over 50 singles, Williams was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2010.

He announced his retirement in 2006 and went on a hugely successful farewell tour that year. He, however, came out of retirement in 2010, quitting finally last year. His final release was in March 2016 – a live CD and DVD recorded in Ireland.

This year, a tribute album was released in his name ‘Gentle Giants: The Songs of Don Williams’ and it included performances of his hits by several artists including Lady Antelbellum and Garth Brooks.
