For Fans Of
Sam Cooke released two albums in 1963, and while the second, Night Beat, often draws higher praise, his first that year, Mr. Soul, deserves attention too. RCA Victor leaned toward the adult, Nat King Cole crowd, and the album can feel a touch over-produced, heavy on strings and choruses, but Cooke rises above it, turning songs like Send Me Some Lovin' into small masterpieces and making familiar standards feel newly significant. A laid-back, cool soul record for its day, it still showcases one of the finest voices of the century in every breath and nuance. This is the yellow and red splatter color edition.
