Sam Cooke (clear)
Originally released in 1961, and also known as "Swing Low", this is the sixth album of Sam Cooke, one of the great artists in the so called sweet-soul-music of the 60's and a relevant voice in the Civil Rights Movement. The album includes "Chain Gang" one of Cooke's greatest hits, plus a timeless rendition of "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" one of the most beautiful devotional tunes in the Afro-American spiritual tradition.
