@@PiletKamicazi I read that she was arguing with his family before the award show,. She called Sam no good before the award show then went on stage then took his award without giving an acceptance speech. Then she told Papa Cooke to say something. She wouldn't even let him hold his son's award, that's why he said what he said if Sam were alive he would be really happy to see him on the stage. I don't even know why Barbara was invited to his induction ceremony. Bobby Womack showed up to Sam's funeral wearing his clothes, rings, and his watch. SMH Barbara is an evil woman, I don't know if she's still alive. Then the guy that gave the award didn't even mention how talent Sam was. This was a bittersweet moment for Sam, more bitter than sweet.
@@samuelleak6615 The person who presented the award is Herb Alpert, who worked with Sam at Keen Records. His induction speech is included in another video on this channel - see the link below. ruclips.net/video/_hc6vlqhN4A/видео.html
@@mattwheeler2511 Thanks for the link, well that explains it. It would have been nice if Sam had been inducted by a well known singer. Little Richard a great job inducting Otis Redding in 1989.
Thank You Herb Alpert for paying respect to Sam Cooke’s father. His pseudo widow certainly made sure she took the Statue from Rev Cooke’s hand so quickly that he did not have the opportunity to touch the statue. But Mr Alpert Lord knows and Sam Cooke knows you tried to do the right by Sam’s father. People saw thru every second of her selfishness.😡
She was in on Sam Cooke's Murder. Barbara Cooke I see the Wretched / Ratchet in her eyes. Still all these years. It's said that She was close by when Sam Cooke was getting Beat to Death.
I acknowledge that she may have made a lot of questionable decisions on her life, but don’t forget Sam Cooke was not a faithful man AT ALL!! He got her pregnant and married another woman. He came back and married her 6 years later. Meanwhile he fathered other children that he did not claim and settled out of court on his 1st born son whom he, again, did not “claim”. Maybe this woman was DONE and had no desire to keep up pretenses like Sam did. He did, almost every thing she did, but some people are ready to throw her under the bus. Sam was literally at a hotel with another woman when he died. Sam was a skirt chaser. Not cool!! They were both wrong!! PERIODT!!
Never seen this before. Herb Alpert who was full of praise for Sam noy just as a performer but as a human being. Imagine Sam Herb Alpert and Lou Adler writing Wonderful World together. Never heard anyons have a bad word to say about Sam as a person RIP Sam as a singer you had no equal
Bless her heart and Sam's as well they had a hard marriage from the start and it just went down hill from the day they said I do.Only the two of them know the truth about how they felt about each other I truly beleave they just could not find happiness no matter how hard they tried some people or just meant to be friends May they both RIP
Wow! Barbara Cooke should absolutely no respect for Sam's father. I now see why Sam wanted to divorce her, and why he cheated on her, not that I agree with cheating..
@𝓖𝓸𝓭'𝓼 𝓒𝓱𝓲𝓵𝓭 there’s a picture of her in the Book Our Uncle Sam that his grandnephew wrote. Sam actually proposed to Dot before he died and was gonna leave Barbara. He was always in love with her, honestly if it wasn’t for Linda Sam would have been married to Dot and probably lived.
@@shenyae4143 yes she’s a Black woman. The first time he proposed to Dot his ex wife Delores caught wind of it and lied about being pregnant. Dot was hurt and called the engagement off.
Karma wasn’t good to her because she found her daughter, whom she had with Sam Cook, in bed with Bobby Womack. She shot Womack, barely missing shooting him in the head. They divorced after that in 1970 and never spoke again.
Just here to let everyone know that Mrs Barbara Cooke passed away today Sending love and prayers to her two children linda and tracy and all her grandchildren! ❤️
@@clementjohnson2666 helllo! I’m not sure they didn’t say how ..Sam’s niece confirmed it on Facebook and Linda’s daughters posted about it but no one said how she died but it was probably most likely natural causes .
@@Tye710 It was said in a interview on tv a while back,anyway she didn't love him to much,she married his so call best friend,oh wait ,how do I know that?
Sam Cooke was very bad at romantic relationships and did not treat Barbara well at all. He was also sometimes violent with her. Don't make him out to be something he wasn't.
I love Sam Cooke but it's not too far fetched that Barbara had some scorn. But nobody would ever do the crap she did with his best friend reenacting him in clothes and stuff. I read somewhere his first marriage to Dolores he paid off a chic he got pregnant for $5,000. And even before big Fame he impregnated a lot of women. We can't overlook the fact that as great as his talent was, he ruined a lot of lives and women's reputations.

Sam should've divorced Barbara before he died. smh He really would have been proud to see papa cooke on stage, he loved his father.
Smh she ruined the moment and fell off the face of the earth. Sam's brothers should've kept that award.

Just awesome 👍
Same here.
Why is this harlot hogging the award after she "sold" Sam's publishing for pennies?

It's TRUE she did pass away in April 2021 I just googled her name it's TRUE she did want the public to know that she passed
Barbara Cooke lived in what state
@@prepaidcust6260 you know I think Louisiana she died in September 2021 the age of 85 yrs old
@@latteliz1944 I was of the impression that she died in April of 2021 , not Sept .
Is it me or do Sam’s wife look EVIL!!!
You are right selfish& greedy !
Mean and surly
Maybe I misheard but did Sam's widow say "it's mine" at 0:12 and took the award?!
I know right? I guess she said all those horrible years she had with him, she earned it!
Does the last name Powell fit in the family’s name I’m trying to win a gentleman’s bet
