Keep Movin' On album Product Description

Keep Movin' On album by Sam Cooke was released Oct 30, 2012 on the Universal Japan label. Recorded between 1959 & 1965. Keep Movin' On CD music Includes liner notes by Peter Guralnick. Keep Movin' On music CDs This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. Keep Movin' On songs This 23-song rarities compilation stands in Sam Cooke's output roughly where the four posthumous LPs released by Otis Redding stand in his catalog, with the major difference that Cooke's work included far fewer leftovers and sides that were justified simply by being available -- he seemed to throw a special effort into almost everything that ever recorded, and that goes double for this disc's content, which encompasses the final year of his recording career. Keep Movin' On album This was a period in which he explored several promising musical directions and broke through both to an extraordinarily sophisticated synthesis of his gospel roots with topical songwriting within a pop context. Keep Movin' On CD music Listeners won't find his most popular songs -- "You Send Me", "Chain Gang", "Only Sixteen", etc. Keep Movin' On music CDs -- here, a result of the split control of his catalog between RCA and ABKCO, but they will find his most important and influential songs. Keep Movin' On songs Cooke was inactive in the studio for a significant chunk of 1963, following the drowning death of his infant son, and when he resumed work late in the year it was under a new contract that was to ultimately give control and ownership of his recordings to him (or, as events worked out, his manager, Allen Klein). Represented here is his foray into a New Orleans sound, on "Basin Street Blues" etc., which he'd never explored before (and which he shaped his own way) as well as his poignant recording of "The Riddle Song", which was a way of his coming to terms musically with the death of his son; and "Good Times", the somber-toned party song of Cooke's that the Rolling Stones chose to cover, and the equally pensive and compelling "Another Saturday Night", a relic of the first half of 1963 that fits equally well with this later material. ...See Full Description

Amazing!!!
This is a wonderful collection of unreleased songs from the originator of soul. A few of the standouts include the touching "Riddle Song", the delightful ballad "country Boy", and of course the legendary cut "A Change Is Gonna Come". You can't help but wonder how the music game would be if he was still alive. With this album, he was truly ahead of his time.

This is one of the best cd's out,I throught I had heard everything Sam Cooke had ever recorded, but there were a couple of song's on this cd that I had never heard before. I will always love all of his music, my recommendation is if you don't have this cd, do not hesitate to buy it today, the service was quick, and fast. This cd should be rated a 10

Excellent "Cooke"
I was truly pleased with the selections. This album offers a pot full of good home cookin'with Basin Street Blues, Try A Little Love and A Change Is Gonna Come in addition to the almost forgotten "Speak Easy" flavored Cousin Of Mine. Cooke's Tennessee Waltz is the best, enhanced by just enough brass with a catchy rhythm. There's no shortage of those other tunes by Cooke from the 60's. I highly recommend this to any fan of his. Kudos to those responsible for this compilation. Thanks!
