Sam Cooke ~ Talkin' Trash You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

love it
They need to re-release all of Sam's albums. Many of them have been out of print since the 1960's.

I agree. All this legal BS. Maybe that's why they never made a biopic on him. Just Music-No Categories-Enjoy It! |

Some of it is owned by ABKCO/Allen Klein, particularly the most popular songs. RCA was bought out by Sony. I think the Keen material is owned by Sony too. I don't know about SAR & Derby, but Sam didn't release his own records on those labels. I think the songs he did with the Soul Stirrers are still in print, but that is Specialty Records. I don't know who owns that, maybe Fantasy. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B.
