This is a fantastic CD. Usually these older vintage works are filled with much lower quality audio than we are use to in our digital era. This CD is really of high audio standards and I haven't even tried the SACD mode yet. Sam Cooke was an amazing talent. I think that all but one or two of the tracks on this CD were not only performed by Sam, but written by him too. If you have even a slight liking of the music that Sam Cooke did this is a must have.

How can you write a review on the excellence of the late, great Sam Cooke. On every song of this cd I enjoyed listening to over and over again. These songs brings back great memories of which my family always played when I was young I knew every word to his songs. From his days of gospel music I enjoyed hearing him sing with the Soul Stirres to his love songs. Truly a well recommended CD for those who love the voice and style of Sam Cooke.Free Music Review: Muhammad Ali recommended this to me

I am by no means a Sam Cooke completist but rather picked this CD up on the advice of a friend. I'm very glad I did - Cooke could sing in front of Limp Bizkit and you would still ache. The sound is top-notch, the program collects all the feel-good hits and some of the gospel recordings, the notes are detailed. This is the perfect introduction to an artist who deserved better than to be shot to death outside a $3 a night motel in Watts.
