Sam Cooke was and still is the complete package....no one could or can touch him vocally.. he could take the embarq phone book and sing the names, and make it sound wonderful...Larry Cooke
he was only a teenager still,shot by the hotel manager where he was staying because he was black and it was late she assumed he was up to no good.... someone should have shot her.
The story was that she feared for her life due to him confronting her about a prostitute he supposedly went to the motel with who had vanished. She said he thought she was in on the prostitute leaving. Because of this confrontation (according to the story), she shot him. One of soul's great legends died young at the age of 33.

behave yourself, Sam Cookes original versions 100 times better than Rods.
Sam was perhaps the finest singer of them all.
