The success doesn't seem to have gone to his head, though: he sounds relaxed and conversational throughout this intimate performance.\n\u003cbr\u003eAccompanied by a band that includes Bobby Womack on guitar, Cooke brings his R\u0026amp;B tendencies further to the fore than on his immaculately produced studio work. He moves deftly through his own hits, like \"You Send Me\" and \"Twistin' The Night Away,\" but it's on the folk songs \"If I Had A Hammer\" and \"Blowin' In The Wind\" that he really stretches out, proving himself a gifted interpreter unbound by stylistic constrictions. AT THE COPA is an essential part of the Cooke canon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2003-06-17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: R\u0026amp;B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2003-06-17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sam Cooke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45222373687411,"sku":"3D3SDC-W0WD-5G","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0500\/7837\/files\/sam-cooke-at-the-copa_LhANF.jpg?v=1783847301","url":"https:\/\/www.lovevinylrecords.com\/products\/sam-cooke-at-the-copa","provider":"Love Vinyl Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
