British vocalist Linda Lewis has died at the age of 72, his sister confirmed.
Lewis conquered the music industry during the 1970s hit songs with his track, "It's In His Kiss." What made her shine brighter than the other singers was her famous five-octave range.

Linda Lewis Career
The West Ham, London, native honed her skills by attending stage schools while appearing in several films with minor roles, including a screaming fan role in The Beatles' film, "A Hard Day's Night."
During the 1970s, the singer rocked the world with her UK hits "I'd Be Surprisingly Good For You," "Baby I'm Yours," "It's In His Kiss," and "Rock-A-Doodle-Doo." However, Lewis' career skyrocketed even more when she sang Rudy Clark-written song, "It's In His Kiss."
The track led her to enter the UK Top 10 chart, securing the No. 6 spot in 1975. The same track landed at No. 96 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Throughout her active career years, Lewis was able to drop several studio albums and other albums with "Say No More" as her debut.
Warner Brothers and BMG released "Reach for the Truth" and "The Best of Linda Lewis" respectively between 2002 and 2003. A 3-CD boxed set "Legends" also arrived after the initial projects.
Years before Lewis' death, she released "Funky Bubbles" to mark her 50th anniversary as a singer.
