Numbered, Limited Edition of 500 Copies on Clear Vinyl LP!
Esteemed soul crooner Sam Cooke achieved much in a short space of time, notching 29 top-40 singles in his seven-year solo career. On Night Beat, released in 1963, Rene Hall's tasteful arrangements allow Cooke's voice to shine, most notably on "Lost and Lookin"; jump blues standards "Shake, Rattle and Roll" and "Little Red Rooster" are playfully rendered, with Billy Preston's organ on the latter. Originals "Mean Old World" and "Laughin' and Clownin" remind of his strong songwriting ability and his spirited take of "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen" recalled his days with the Soul Stirrers. A prime album for all Cooke fans. Clear vinyl.
