artfromtex Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Sam Cooke is great, He was a huge influnce on Rod Stewart on Rod's more soulful stuff you can hear it.he was a huge influence on Steve Perry as well. you can really hear it when you think about it. on Journey's box set, Time3, there's a live cover of "Good Times" and SP really nails it.

Elnombre Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Rock music today would be much greater and less derivative of itself if more people checked out great soul music - particularly singers.There's a lot to learn about handling vocals from the likes of Sam Cooke, Otis Redding and Marvin Gaye.
