   You remember those guys @jmyrlefuller ?   
   That's early 70's, I barely remember, but I have an smoky excuse.

Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

These Van Morrison songs are my gift to any of you unfortunate younger people who may have never heard him.

I love Sam Cooke . . . but I thought the Jukes actually beat him on their version.


Sam Cooke, "Shake"

Read this book on Sam Cooke.

A great singer and song writer, what a sad end to great career.

One gospel song by him I was not that familiar with not too long ago.

I've got the book on my list.

I liked listening to Sam Cooke doing gospel---but with the Soul Stirrers on their great 1950s recordings.
(The Stirrers had another impact on the music to come: their ensemble singing style became the model
for the ensemble-singing soul groups of the 1960s and later.)

Sure, the Soul Stirrers are great; maybe there is some version still around singing but Sam really caught the more modern sound, a father of soul music.

Just for quiz purposes, Sam Cooke was born in Clarksville, MS.,  home or a home of Delta Blues but migrated to Chicago at a very young age.   He grew up in the area called Bronzetown and many Chicagoans know  where you are talking about if you say that. The Soul Stirrers hailed originally from Texas but they toured all the time, they picked up Sam in Chicago. I think Chicago became the Soul Stirrers home-base as well.

I may have posted this before, this is a favorite that really rocks from cerca 1961; so before the Beatles and a lot of other people.

She wrote a book about her experiences, they aren't much more than a one hit wonder though they had some other charting songs very different than this, soft pop.

He passed away some years ago so she sang with another singer for the male role.

They both knew each other since high school.

The Soul Stirrers are still around. They've probably changed membership more than Congress over the years,
but it was with Sam Cooke and his successor Johnnie Taylor that the Stirrers got more modern in their
own right. After Taylor left the Soul Stirrers' crossover prominence ended.

Speaking of soul men or soul-rockers who launched out of the gospel milieu . . .


The Chambers Brothers, "So Fine"


The Chambers Brothers, "Love, Peace, and Happiness"
