COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Greatest of All Time submitted by benmurphysmith on July 28, 2018, 10:05pm Great and thorough biography. Guralnik's weakness is that he uses Alan Klein as a source for a ton of things, unquestioningly, despite the many issues regarding their relationship that came to light after Cooke's death. Sam Cooke is one of the most important American Musicians of the 20th Century, it's a shame his name is not better known and included in history textbooks.
