Not only is his 1957 recording "You Send Me" considered the very first "Soul" song, Sam Cooke was also a pioneer in the music industry. A prolific songwriter that wrote most of his hits, Sam was one of the first musicians to negotiate ownership of his music publishing rights--a move that's common in modern music but was basically unheard of in the early '60's. His life is truly an interesting story.<br /><br />Erik Greene<br />Author, "Our Uncle Sam: The Sam Cooke Story From His Family's Perspective"<br />www.OurUncleSam.comSam's Nephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408962736576564837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119979.post-985986743509690572010-06-19T20:57:57.104-07:002010-06-19T20:57:57.104-07:00Ditto on Sam Cooke - great musician.

Eric and I don't watch either!RABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12140327676803216199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119979.post-70308624795471738022010-06-19T15:09:01.451-07:002010-06-19T15:09:01.451-07:00Poor April!!

For some weird reason I have never had any favorites and absolutely cannot stand to sit in front of a sitcom with canned laughter running every thirty seconds. I will drop off to sleep within minutes on most shows-OR I'll get up and get a book. Good luck on learning to enjoy TV. LOL! On Sam Cooke-Karen is right. He WAS one of the finest singers ever. Beautiful voice/ upbeat songs. Check him out-I have a collection of his songs-if you like him. Love you so much-DadPerrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119979.post-17096037306117871582010-06-19T09:12:05.315-07:002010-06-19T09:12:05.315-07:00Do you mean David Cooke?

Because Sam Cooke was an amazing R&B/soul singer who sang the classic songs like "A Change is Gonna Come", "You Send Me", "Bring it on Home to Me" and many many others.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_CookeKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17545813195191340930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119979.post-19822635393836299162010-06-19T06:14:54.727-07:002010-06-19T06:14:54.727-07:00I haven't watched AI since season 4.

So I don't know who Sam Cooke is either.<br /><br />And we just canceled cable because we don't watch TV anymore. We avidly watch Netflix and shows on that, but rarely watch anything as it airs anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
