This collector’s LP release includes one of Cooke’s finest albums, "The Wonderful World of Sam Cooke", which was originally issued by Keen Records in 1960 and has been long unavailable on vinyl. An early soul masterpiece that continues to stand the test of time. It contains some of Cooke’s greatest studio recordings, including well-known hits from the peak of his career, such as “(What a) Wonderful World,” “Desire Me,” “No One (Can Ever Take Your Place),” and “Summertime,” or tunes that come from his spiritual background like “I Thank God” and “That’s Heaven to Me.”

In addition to the original album, this collector’s LP also contains 2 bonus tracks by Sam Cooke from the same period, “Win Your Love for Me,” and “Steal Away.” These are incredible tunes from one of the most important singers and pioneers in soul music.
