Soul-Stirring Sam
Our annual Easter weekend posting of several Sam Cooke & the Soul Stirrers sides from the 1950s, among the greatest recordings of American music ever, before Sam went pop.
Of course we have to start with Good Friday and peak Sam, “Were You There?”
Naturally followed by “Must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone,” which includes a snatch of “Amazing Grace” (Sam’s only recorded version)
“He’s My Guide”
“The Last Mile of the Day”
Now recover with the bouncy “He’ll Welcome Me.”
Somber “Any Day Now”
“Pilgrim of Sorrow”
Could add another dozen nearly as great. Your move.
From Tunes to Toons

From my camera to you: During Easter week, pilgrims come (sometimes on foot), for possible healing, to chapel and shrine El Santuario de Chimayo, in Chimayo, N.M.
Thank you, Greg Mitchell, for giving me strength through community.
Thank you.
