  • Samuel Cook (January 22, 1931 – December 11, 1964), known professionally as Sam Cooke, was an American gospel, R&B, soul, and pop singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur. He is considered to be one of the pioneers and founders of soul music. He is commonly known as the King of Soul for his vocal abilities and influence on the modern world of music. His contribution in pioneering Soul music led to the rise of Aretha Franklin, Bobby Womack, Al Green, Curtis Mayfield, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, and popularizing the likes of Otis Redding and James Brown. Cooke had 29 top-40 hits in the U.S. between 1957 and 1964. Major hits like "You Send Me", "A Change Is Gonna Come", "Cupid", "Chain Gang", "Wonderful World", and "Bring It on Home to Me" are some of his most popular songs. Cooke was also among the first modern black performers and composers to attend to the business side of his musical career. He founded both a record label and a publishing company as an extension of his careers as a singer and composer. He also took an active part in the American Civil Rights Movement. On December 11, 1964, Cooke was fatally shot by the manager of the Hacienda Motel in Los Angeles, California, at the age of 33. At the time, the courts ruled that Cooke was drunk and distressed, and that the manager had killed Cooke in what was later ruled a justifiable homicide. Since that time, the circumstances of his death have been widely questioned.
  • Samuel Cook, conocido por su nombre artístico como Sam Cooke, fue un cantante estadounidense de música gospel, R&B, soul y pop; compositor y empresario musical. Es uno de los pioneros de la música soul y una de las grandes influencias en la música pop, el rhythm and blues y la neo soul. Algunos lo consideran El Rey del Soul (título que comparte con Otis Redding), por el hecho de que tuviera casi una treintena de hits entre 1957 y 1965. Fue el primer cantante afroamericano en fundar su propia empresa discográfica, SAR Records, siendo también un gran activista dentro del Movimiento por los Derechos Civiles. A su vez fue uno de los cantantes de su época con mayor audiencia no afroamericana.
  • Sam Cooke Malline:Lausunta alun perin Sam Cook oli merkittävä yhdysvaltalainen gospel-, rhythm and blues- ja soul-musiikin esittäjä ja lauluntekijä. Sam Cooke valittiin ensimmäisten muusikoiden joukossa Rock and Roll Hall of Fameen vuonna 1986. Cooke on yksi tärkeimpiä ja arvostetuimpia soul/r&b muusikoita Marvin Gayen ja Stevie Wonderin ohella sekä raivasi tällaisen musiikkityylin suosiota myös suuremman yleisön tietoisuuteen. Cooken tunnetuimpia kappaleita ovat mm. "You Send Me", "Chain Gang", "Wonderful World", "Bring It on Home to Me" ja "A Change Is Gonna Come".
  • Musicisti e critici oggi lo ritengono uno dei fondatori della soul music e uno dei più importanti cantanti della storia di questo genere. È stato definito da molti "il re del soul"(e, a parere di Jerry Wexler dell'Atlantic Records, il miglior cantante di tutti i tempi), e, anche se più di uno può ambire a questo titolo, il suo influsso è stato forte e il suo impatto sulla musica soul innegabile. Piazzò 29 singoli nella "Top 40" negli USA tra il 1957 e il 1965 ed è considerato spesso come "il creatore" del genere. Grandi successi come "You Send Me", "Chain Gang", "Wonderful World", "Bring It on Home to Me" e "A Change Is Gonna Come" sono tra le sue canzoni più popolari. Cooke fu anche tra i primi artisti di colore a occuparsi anche degli aspetti imprenditoriali della sua attività: Fondò sia un'etichetta discografica che una casa editrice come ampliamento della sua carriera di cantante e compositore. Prese anche parte attiva nel Movimento per i Diritti Civili (American Civil Rights Movement), usando le proprie capacità musicali per creare legami tra il pubblico di colore e il pubblico bianco.
