Free Music Notes for One Night Stand: Live at the Harlem Square Club 63
Free Music Review: An Unforgettable Live Album
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is a priceless gem that you will treasure forever! Sam Cooke metaphorically rolls up his sleeves and really works up a sweat in this amazing live concert at the Harlem Square Club, giving an earthy, gritty performance that is spellbinding. Sam's delivery crackles with raw energy! He belts out the songs with an emotional intensity and sense of urgency that whips his audience into euphoric frenzy.
Some favourite, well-loved songs (such as "Cupid," "Chain Gang," "Bring it on Home to Me," etc.) have been thumpingly and effectively re-worked to give them an edginess which causes the temperature to soar in that highly charged, festive atmosphere.
You can feel the electricity in the air! Sam teases and cajoles an attentive and adoring audience who eagerly comply with the call to party. The tempo intensifies and reaches a crescendo at the end of a totally exhilarating and riveting musical experience!

The Sam Cooke Live at the Harlem Square Club was one of my better purchases. The CD was brand new in the package as promised. The disc had no marks, blimishes or scratches and it plays clear and even. The performance of Sam Cooke and hearing him live is an exeperience that I will cherish. I wanted quality above all and this CD delivers. I was pleased to see that each song had a nice length to it and was not too short as many compilation CDs are. I wanted to add this CD to my library, therefore, it had to be in good condition and it was. The audio quality was very good, very clear and crisp inspite of being recorded in 1964 before digital technology existed. The remastering was done ideally for each track. Overall I'd say I am very pleased with this product.Free Music Review: One of the greatest live performances
Hit: 5 Stars
Sam Cooke delivers an unbelievable performance in this one. When I first got it, it was difficult for me to appreciate this live album. But as time passed by, the more it grew on me. And now, it's truly one of my favorite albums. Any soul music fan has to have this one.
The way Sam Cooke works the crowd is a thing of beauty. Those people that attended this performance are some lucky folks. He gives it his all and the crowd appreciates it. My personal favorite was "Chain Gang" because of the way he works the crowd at the end and because his voice is just electrifying with his "oh yeah" screams. Sam Cooke may not be my favorite artist but I believe he's the greatest artist of all-time. This record is one of the many testaments of that.
Free Music Review: A Mature Sam Cooke
Hit: 5 Stars
I can categorically say this album was the cream of Sam Cooke. The reason for saying this, is to counteract the previous comment made by A. Sturley. Sam did not change his voice for this concert. Sam was getting more mature. His voice was breaking. Which I preferred. Had he lived longer, he would'nt be too far of Bobby Womack or a more polished soul singer. Also him moving with the times, who knows how he would really sound like had he lived longer. A. Sturley, if you do not believe me,buy and listen to the album (Keep Moving On).Both albums will always make music listeners take notes. The One Night Stand: Live at the Harlem Square Club was Sam Cooke delivering at his very best!
