This is my favorite Sam Cooke song. He had so much talent. It is such a shame that he died so young. No copyright infringement intended!

Aug 20, 2008 - It's great to see this clip back on-line. I was the one who originally uploaded it under the alias of Guybrush224, but it was removed due to a copyright infringement claim by ABKCO. This is Sam's appearance on The Jerry Lewis Show, which took place on December 7, 1963.

Aug 20, 2008 - One of my favorite voices ever, probably tied with Marvin Gaye... I love "A Change is Gonna Come".
