Sam Cooke

everything is good about sam cooke. let his voice shake loose your bones...and your heart. these are two of my favorite sam cooke songs of all time. the first one is the best version of "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen" that i've ever heard. the second one is, "Bring it on Home To Me," and Pete Weiss and I used to sing it in the Union Square Subway station to raise money for Obama. It's a doosy.

there's so much good sam cooke out there, i feel bad just posting two videos but youtube has a surprising shortage of good videos featuring him. bummer.

however, these do the trick.

listen to that voice...nobody sounds like that.

thank you, sam.

in love,
ge
