not a big fan of Brians ballads?
another amazing Chuck Jackson single
one of my new favourite soul singers from the era

Sam Cooke cut his most consistent album in '63 over the course of just 3 nights with a tight crew of musicians (including Hal Blaine from the Wrecking Crew and 16 year old Billie Preston) where they crafted an understated sound that let Sams voice really shine (whereas alot of his previous recordings had pretty busy arrangements)
