Bring It On Home Black America / Various Uk- Bring It on Home: Black America / Various (CD)
Black America has been singing Sam Cooke for more than half a century. The volume of great songs that Sam wrote in a secular career spanning barely seven years is matched by the quality of those songs - many of which are fundamental to the evolution of soul music in the early-mid 60s. It's therefore logical and right that Sam should appear in Ace's occasional BLACK AMERICA SINGS series, as he does this month in a package issued close to the 50th anniversary of his death in December 1964. BRING IT ON HOME features some of Sam's best-known songs (as well as - this being Ace - some of his least-known), many performed by artists whose careers Sam helped to get underway, including Johnnie Taylor, the Simms Twins, Mel Carter, and Bobby Womack. Also featured are a number of singers who owe a vocal debt to Sam, including Brenton Wood, R.B. Greaves, Johnny Nash, Otis Redding and Louis Williams of the Ovations.
