(Sam Cooke – Nobody Knows)
continuing the sixartistweek selection with the third cut from Mr Soul. This one taken from his 1963 album ‘Night Beat’. for themusicologist a special album that helped get me through darkest days … what turned out to sadly be a prophetic song for Sam that I like to think helped him as much as it did me…
a tear jerker that never fails to touch the soul.
Great song. Excellent album. The way Sam hits the last word (“Hallelujah!”) shows why he was The Master.

another pearl from Sam C…the song has so
few words yet more than enough to get the heart felt message accross and indeed allow us to get the full impact of his achingly beautiful voice..
