Thank you Mr. Mark Antony, for the brilliant and informative upload of the incomparable Mr. Sam Cooke. Mr. Cooke will forever be engraved in our society.
The years go by. But time cannot fade that voice that genius. Timeless music that captures a new generation every cycle. All the greatest voices are now gone with a few exceptions. Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Elvis Presley, Jackie Wilson and of course Marvin Gaye. We will never see taht kind of talent ever again. There isnt a single singer today in their class. Thats why we can never let go.
I loved this doc, not just because it covers Sam Cooke's life & artistry, but because it includes so much of the context at the time: other Black artists, amazing footage from different Black communities including church communities, & aspects of white America's racism & the ongoing Civil Rights movement. Makes his achievements so much more profound when you see the struggle involved, how hard he had to work & how much he had to overcome in a world that was structured to silence & exclude his extraordinary voice. Amazing to think that all the people who tried to silence him are long gone & forgotten, whereas his voice & his words are still with us & will live on forever.
I loved Sam Cooke and this song to me represents the civil rights movement. The video attached is what we watched on tv in that time and should be shown to remind people of all persuasions of how badly people were treated not for any other reason than color. Thanks for putting it together
This was well presented..keeping Sam Cooke's life journey in context with the social & moral issues in America during his time. It seems appropriate that he came from a gospel group called 'The Soul Stirrers ',,, because his wonderful voice did just that...stirred the soul. You can't truly sing 'Soul' music unless you believe you have a soul..you may get it right 'technically'..but it will leave the listener empty. Sam, like all of us may not have had a spotless personality....but he couldn't have written 'A Change is gonna come' without digging deep enough to express his soul. He had style, class, talent & business smarts.
This series is a masterpiece!! No one else has presented the legend of the unmatchable Sam Cooke in such a way that conveys honor and sincere respect to one of our people's most beloved artist. What a treasure he is and you've done a masterful job. The surprise ending featuring our dear and departed Queen of Soul, blessing us with her very own homage to Mr. Sam Cooke is brilliant..to say the least. Thank you so much. 1Love❤️👏🏽
This was very very inspiring thank you for sharing it. I remember hearing my mom listening to Sam Cooke but never knew his story. He was a real trailblazer. I would love to see what you do with Jackie Wilson. But this was much appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to pull it all together
Something is not right about what happened to him. And the woman having sunglasses in the court at the stand... But it'll be exposed and the truth will come to light at the appointed time.
They said that Bertha Franklin died about 18 months after Sam. But I later heard that she actually didn't die until the '90s, so somebody helped her pretend to be dead in order to keep her alive, I guess. I can imagine his fans really wanted to kill her after what she did.
That sounds interesting . But tell us , where did you get this information ? Was it word of mouth , or did you read this somewhere ? Because if you were told the truth , his family and die hard fans need to get to the bottom of this .
I think he was set up lured and murdered by the FBI and the CIA because during those times of social unrest , his social influence was growing to much and too big , so much so it would fuel the civil rights movement more than the white racist government could control to their liking. So they used a beautiful black woman who likely was with the FBI and or CIA to take him out and use that woman as the fall guy , then faked her death 18 months later, gave her a new identity until she died in the 90's. May she and them rot in hell. The change is already here . And nothing can stop it . It's over for them . Yahushua has stepped in .
back we we had unity and respect for each other Sam Malcom x Muhammad Ali Bob Marley and Marcus Garvey all turning over in their graves so very sad hit
Wow. Black folk have had a set-apart experience in AMERICA, the anagram: I AM RACE. The music and its influence and popularity has been phenomenal. Even today's least black music (in comparison to Jazz, Rock-n-Roll, Blues, etc.) is popular all over the world with even Iraqis doing rap. And of course there are white rappers everywhere. Now the 411 coming out is that the African Americans are the Hebrews of the Bible. WOW!!
Im 15 and do not like modern music. I was listening to some older jazz stuff and discovered sam cooke recently, am absolutely wowed by that voice man... I wish there were great singers like Sam on the radio. Sam had the greatest voice i the world and did not deserve to die in this way.
He we as killed on 92nd and figueroa st. That street to this day is still prostitution lane, I pass by there everyday,that motel has since been rebuild, but I remember as a young boy going with my parents to people's funeral home and viewing his body, that night it was raining, what a sad ere night.
Sam Cooke: GOD-GIVEN TALENT!!!!!!!** He Sanged Songs About Life, About People, About Society, And It's Different Levels Of Animosity.** "Sam Cooke Was "Osmotically" Smart." "No Contest!!!!!"**
Sam Cooke was a one off. Thats why even nearly 48 years after that callous Bertha Franklin supposedly murdered him. We mourn him. We mourn him more because look what we have now. Mostly talentless fame hungry fools. Who have no art, nothing REAL to contribute to our culture. Just play the fame game and get all they can out of it. He should have been number 1. And Jackie Wilson my other favourite singer number 2. Aretha and Ray are good. But not better than them two.
She looks like one of those. " You not better than me", types! Killed a brother with no remorse in her face. What a leach, had to attach herself to this great legend!
@blewis9505 Sam Cooke was murdered coz he was becoming too powerful in the music business. He was friends with Malcolm X & Muhammad Ali. The difference was the Muhammad Ali had the Nation of Islam to protect him. Sam was on his own amongst gangters. Google the death picture of Sam Cooke where you will see him slumped on the floor where the police are said to have found him. He was shot 3 times yet there was no blood as if he was murdered some place else first.
And that to me was the issue. In his music he sounded like he needed whites to accept him....just my opinion.....and that night with that Asian woman was the same thing. Look at who was at his funerals........sorry to say, but Sam the woman who wasnt so intrigued by you that night killed u.
@@tanisharobinson154 typical angry black woman coming here to show the world how much u hate Black men. The brother was not murdered the way they claim if u don't want to believe that then don't come back to this video move the fuck on.
@@tanisharobinson154 u don’t know what u are talking about u don’t know the meaning of his songs.i was there in the sixties. He didn’t care if those people accepted him.he was always down for his people.
@blewis9505 Sam Cooke was shot 3 times at point blank range and had nothing on but a dinner jacket. There would have been more than internal bleeding. Infact there would have been a whole heap of blood or at least some visable blood. Plus Etta james, who actually saw him at the funeral, said his head had heavy brusing to the point where it was done with more than Just a broom stick ! And the NOI did protect Muhammad Ali that's why he was never assassinated during the 60's vietnam war
@drjimiboy69 Jimi Hendrix's influence was monumental no doubt, but he was no Sam Cooke... and apparently it isn't just people commentin on this video who believe in Sam's genius. "Rolling Stone" magazine ranks Sam as the 4th greatest vocalist of all-time (should've been number 1) and though Hendrix outranks him on their overall top artists list at number 6 while Sam ranks 16th, his overall impact is undeniable... the Rolling Stones idolized him, Rod Steward wanted to be him, and so forth.
when Sam Cooke went on tour with the legend Little Richard to England he apparently got schooled in "sins of the flesh" I love the legend Little Richard but his uncensored "bio" displays him as no Saint...sorry Sam Cooke was given a small two-bit grave stone..Sam deserved more...
If he thought his oppressor was his brother, then he was more lost than I thought he was (2:13). Revolution is not about "please love me" because I love you......you can beat me and kill me and I will still love you.....sounds like a weird, abusive relationship. This is the result of 400 years of harsh oppression.
Barbara, Bobby , producer and all the other jealous friends set him up. Bobby wanted to be Sam to the point he wanted his woman , wore Sam’s clothes to Sam’s funeral. Sure he wanted the stardom and money too.
Man,Im glad I wasnt Sam's brother cause .........."HOW DO YOU LOSE SOMEONE LIKE THAT AND MOVE ON"? I remember that year when it happened and there really wasnt a Christmas that year,just a tremendous void,an echo of nothingness,something that couldnt be replaced had hit the BLACK community once again ,dont you dare attemp to smile,fate waits n you everytime you do, L.C, Charles,David, ya,all some brothers made of steel,you had to be, and less I forget the Rev.Cook,and Mrs.Cook his blessed Mother ,and Sisters.
I love the song. I find the lyrics to "Long Time Coming" to be, stylistically, kind of interesting. I can hear them as either black Afro-American vernacular, or the language of white Europeans when they are being intentionally poetic. Am I the only one who hears that, who thinks that? Am I hearing things? For example "and just like the river I've been runnin', every since. Seems to be that a black person might choose to say "running" rather than "flowing," in ordinary every day speech, and perhaps choose "flowing" if they were writing instead of speaking, and at the same time, a white person might choose to say "running" instead of "flowing," especially if they were writing poetry, or a lyric, or if he were trying to sound a bit poetic. Black vernacular: "it's been too hard living" as opposed to the more white "living has been too hard." But at the same time it seems to me that it may also be common to say it this way in white vernacular, when the speaker is trying to sound a bit poetic, rather than just using plain speech. Perhaps the white person may put a pause after the word _hard,_ a comma. Am I hearing things? You tell me. I love the song. I love Sam Cooke's work with the Soul Stirrers. I don't much like his pop music offerings. I'm a 1948 model. I heard Sam Cooke's pop recordings in the 1960's and I never much liked them. I didn't hear "Long Time Coming" until I hear it Spike Lee's _Malcom X._ I never heard the Soul Stirrers until a few months ago. Both things completely changed by feelings about Sam Cooke.
It "reminded" everyone of death? It specifically says "It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die. I don't know what's up there, beyond the sky."
@blewis9505 Being family doesn't mean you have the last word cos L.C Cooke ain't typing this , I am. Muhammad Ali, Etta James, both who were at the funeral, and many others , say that the story of Sam Cooke's death wasn't properly investigated. Even Elvis Presley said Sam Cooke was murdered because he didn't do as he was told. Elvis Presley said he heard it from the horses mouth. And if you don't believe me then watch the video called SAM COOKE - THE REAL TRUTH (7 OF 7)
No pistol holds 30 rounds in the clip the story does not add up. I believe Etta James version, Sam Cooke the greatest voice period he sings with the angels now, how lucky they are

NOBODY EVEN CLOSE TO HIS LEVEL OF PURE, RAW TALENT.
Courtney Arroyo Amen to that
Courtney Arroyo agreed
A vocal virtuoso...
yes!!
Not even Michael Jackson
I always get goosebumps listening to Sam the King of Soul 😄, Love you Always💖💕
Still love his music. GREAT.
Even though I was so young but I was impressed with his voice n songs during his days. The golden voice. I really love him n miss him

MAY THE SOUL FILLED VOICE OF SAM COOKE LIVE ON.

Very few are born with having “IT”...Sam had IT. His voice is timeless & star quality looks. Had he lived the songs he would have written & sang!!!!
We Love you Sam Cooke.

why?
Beautiful tribute by his brother at the end. Very touching.
his brother is so proud :)
He was, and will always be the greatest singer of the 20th century.
Makes me so sad. 😥 Such a loss. Pure beautiful talent. A Change Is Gone Come , Sam. Not sure when.

Change gon come is like Bob’s Get up Stand Up and I Shot the Sheriff 🤨
It is the way greed is because he was a black man that made too much money, they took Otis out the same way, it's very sad.
He should have stayed with God. God loved him! Cause he had grown up in the church realm but was lead astray. He gave his first fruits to the Lord.
does that woman say 30 times? or 3 times not even sure.
