5.0 out of 5 stars That Cousin of Mine, December 30, 2001
This review is from: At the Copa (Audio CD)
After watching the December 2001 VH1 special on Sam Cooke, I am more convinced than ever that his second Copa performance (of which this album resulted) is a classic and collector's item. Sam's being a pioneer in crossing cultural and ethnic barriers to entertain with music, the universal language, makes this Copa performance even more an intricate part of history than most may think. Watching Sam's influence on boxing champions like Ali (As seen in the 2001 movie bio of Ali and the VH1 special) makes this Copa project priceless. Thanks to those who refused to allow this recording to become extinct. Sam is forever part of my heritage: I am one of his cousins.
