Yeah Man
February 13th, 2008
I got an interesting email from posting that Sam Cooke song:
"Yeah Man" is an important, yet often overlooked song in Sam's catalog. Arthur Conley had to later admit his famous "Sweet Soul Music" is basically the same song and thus give writing credits to my uncle. "Yeah Man" was released after Sam died but the song, along with "Shake" represented a new Soul sound Sam had planned to establish. Good choice of song here.
It's from Sam Cooke's nephew, who wrote a book about his talented relative.
