About Sam Cooke - Sam Cooke - Greatest Hits

Now we have Greatest Hits, a 22-song collection of Cooke's pop hits in addition to the 13-song Best Of collection and the 28-song The Man and His Music. Only The Man comes close to presenting a complete portrait of the legendary soul singer: At least there are examples of Cooke's gospel and R&B material. (Any collection without "A Change is Gonna Come" is an automatic failure.) Cooke's melodious voice and deft songwriting touch are worthy of more than a single-disc compilation. If you want just the pop smashes, the sublime ballads, and infectious mellow grooves, this set will suffice. Otherwise, The Man offers a more comprehensive and well-rounded look at Cooke's legacy. --Marc Greilsamer Amazon.com

I got this disc and didn't realize how many tunes Sam cooke really had. This is an awesome disk. It is chocked full of great music. I love to put it on and let it play all the way through. September 23, 2008

I knew what I wanted...one song that was hard to find. It turns out that I like the entire CD...not at all surprising considering this is Sam Cooke. I own a lot of Sam Cooke music and I admit there may be a song or two that I skip over, but it's hard to resist the sound of Sam's legendary voice. I was thrilled that I was able to find this on Amazon. The CD is new and arrived in the amount of time stated, and I got it at a great price. April 23, 2008

Probably the most underrated song writer since Harry Warren. This CD is not quite as comprehensive as I should have wished March 8, 2008
