Sam Cooke - Night Beat (Limited Edition,180 Gram Green Vinyl) (Import) (LP)

Recorded in 1963, Night Beat stands as one of Sam Cooke's most intimate and soulful recordings. Stripping back the polished arrangements he was known for, Cooke leaned into late-night blues textures, delivering performances of remarkable control and depth. The result is an album that moves at an unhurried pace without ever losing its emotional pull.

Night Beat showcases Cooke at his most raw and expressive, with his voice taking center stage against a spare, small-group backdrop that draws out every nuance of his phrasing. Highlights include standout tracks like "Little Red Rooster," "Mean Old World," and "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen," which together capture the moody, after-hours atmosphere that makes this album so enduring. This Music On Vinyl release brings the classic recording back to life on 180-gram green vinyl, making it a worthy addition to any soul collection.
