All God's Kids, They Wanna Rock

All God's Kids, They Wanna Rock As we transition from summer to fall, I think it's only appropriate that we kick summer's angry ass out the door Adios Lounge style. Here's a compilation of music that's helped keep me sane during a summer of continuous 100+ degree weather. I think it's a good mix of soul and rock, but those designations are a bit loose. The soul stuff rocks and the rock stuff has soul, so everyone wins. Incidentally, if someone asked you what the Adios Lounge sounds like, you could probably do worse than send them this mix. I'll [...]

Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons - "Born Again"

Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons - "Born Again" Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons - "Born Again" the son of a baptist minister, cory chisel grew up immersed in the spiritedness of gospel music. a spiritedness that still informs a sound further influenced by iconic artists like howlin' wolf, aretha franklin, and sam cooke. the native of the upper midwest breathes a refreshing vitality into a sometimes inwardly-focused prosaic genre. we really dig cory (and his wandering sons), if you're not already up on him, familiarize yourself. buy "born again" the wandering sons on myspace [...]

It Might Be One O'Clock and It Might Be Three

It Might Be One O'Clock and It Might Be Three " Sam (Cooke) had a way of singing, it was like Mahalia Jackson . She could sing a Christmas carol and people would cry. Sam had that same communication line. He could sing to an audience and he would have their complete (attention). I would look down the rows from the stage and everybody would be looking him, man. They couldn't take their eyes off him." --Leo Morris, drummer for Sam Cooke in 1960, to Peter Guralnick, Dream Boogie: The Triumph Of Sam Cooke , p. [...]

Sam Cooke is Yours He'll Never Grow Old

Sam Cooke is Yours He'll Never Grow Old So recently I received an email of the anonymous kind simply with Sam Cooke in the subject line. Already, I was intrigued. Sam Cooke is, in my opinion, the best singer of all time. Aretha Franklin can wail, don't get me wrong, she's amazing, but Sam Cooke is effortless in his eloquence. For instance while Aretha was still running around in Detroit Sam Cooke was with the Soul Stirrers performing Gospel music at it's finest. I digress, the email. So here's what it said: Enjoy your site immensely. No one in the world has these live [...]

A Change Is Gonna Come

A Change Is Gonna Come As incredible as the music was back in the days of Sam Cooke - I've never once wished to have live through that era. The prejudice and discrimination in the US at the time inspired Sam Cooke to write what would become the most important song during the Civil Rights Movement. The song wasn't a big hit in terms of chart success - but essentially it was never intended to be. After writing the song, Cooke was skeptical about recording it due to his large white fan base however an incident in 1963 where he and [...]

En met mijn ogen gesloten en neus dichtgeknepen ben ik het gaan luisteren. [...]
