Our Take

Sam Cooke, the smooth crooner with a voice like honey, is back with a reissue of his classic album "The Wonderful World Of Sam Cooke." And let me tell you, this limited edition release is more scrumptious than a full English breakfast.

From the moment you drop the needle on the vinyl, you are transported to a world where soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics reign supreme. Cooke's vocals are so silky, it's like being wrapped in a warm hug from your nan after a long day at the pub.

The album features all the hits you know and love, like "You Send Me" and "Cupid," but the real gems are the two bonus tracks that will make you want to dance around your living room like a loon. Cooke's ability to blend R&B, gospel, and pop is nothing short of genius, and his influence can still be heard in today's music scene.

So whether you're a die-hard Cooke fan or a newcomer to the world of soul, this limited edition reissue is a must-have for your collection. And remember, in the words of the man himself, "Don't fight it, feel it." Cheers, mate.
