Our Take

Picture this: it's the swinging sixties, the dance floor is packed, and Sam Cooke's soulful voice is filling the air. You can almost smell the hairspray and hear the click of the record player as you twist and shout to "Twistin' The Night Away".

Cooke's latest album is a masterclass in foot-tapping, hip-swaying goodness. From the infectious title track to the smooth ballads like "Somebody Have Mercy", each song is a perfect blend of rhythm and blues.

The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument perfectly balanced to create a sound that is both timeless and fresh. Cooke's vocals are as silky smooth as ever, effortlessly gliding over each note and leaving you wanting more.

But what really sets "Twistin' The Night Away" apart is its ability to transport you to a different era. Close your eyes and you can almost feel the neon lights of a 60s dance hall, hear the laughter of the crowd, and lose yourself in the music.

In a world that seems to be constantly changing, Sam Cooke's music remains a comforting constant. So grab your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let "Twistin' The Night Away" take you on a trip down memory lane.

Cooke’s discography is a treasure trove of hits, from the iconic “A Change Is Gonna Come” to the infectious “Twistin’ the Night Away.” Each song showcases his unparalleled talent and versatility, solidifying his status as a true musical genius. Beyond his incredible vocal abilities, Cooke was also a trailblazer in the industry, navigating the complexities of race and politics with grace and courage. His impact on the civil rights movement cannot be overstated, as he used his platform to advocate for change and equality.
