The Sam Cooke Story


Well, Sam Cooke is most definitely one of my favorite soul artists and I thought it would be fitting to start this blog thing out with his story. Check out this little piece National Public Radio did a while back (aired November 16, 2005).

The man had a mythical life story. I thought it was interesting that Bob Dylan inspired him to write his legendary, 'A Change is Gonna Come'. Try to listen through the whole interview, the last few minutes talk about the mystery surrounding his death.

This guy also has some interesting things to say about it.
