Live At The Harlem Square Club Mov Version

I had to order this to hear him in his element.

It arrived in as good or better condition as described, it arrived early, and at a fair price!

I bought this for my mother-in-law. It is the best live recording I have ever heard; not because of the sound quality (with is just fine) but because of the performance. Sam is singing his heart out for an audience who love him supported by a great band.

Delivered in a timely manner in perfect shape.

Title says it all. Shipping is important with vinyls. Mine came safely packaged and in brand new condition. Sounds wonderful. Love this album. 10/10.

Received Live At Harlem Square Club CD reissue 2005 (8-88837-144962-4) under the listing for the 1985 CD version. Remaster, different cover (purple jacket, standing to the right, with a faded sax player behind him). However, CD came in excellent condition and shipped quickly. I will keep, but audiophiles as usual must be careful when looking for a specific release version. The 2005 is an acceptable remaster of this album. You want to avoid the 2013 remaster that mutes the audience even further.

The quality of the product was very good. Nice pressing, good quality overall. The performance is incredible! I'll just echo what you've probably already read - this is a charged and raucous performance. The band was great (King Curtis adds some beautiful sax work), and Sam Cooke's vocals demonstrate the magnificent poise that he is known for but add an urgency that his studio recordings only occasionally highlight. This is Sam sounding a lot closer to James Brown than to Nat King Cole. Just a fantastic performance.

It was not the original cut of this album, but all the same, so very glad I to find it on Amazon.Good quality, can't beat vinyl especially with the greatness of Sam Cooke.

If you’re looking at reviews, just buy it man. This is why you brought a vinyl player. Excellent record. You will not regret it. Feels like you are there. Very special.

Die Aufnahmen aus dem Harlem Square Club wurden erst in den 1980er-Jahren durch die Plattenfirma veröffentlicht. Sam Cooke, der für die Plattenfirma von seinem Image her immer als Saubermann verkauft wurde, hört sich auf dieser Platte ganz anders an. Dieses Konzert vor einem schwarzen Publikum hat eine unglaubliche Dynamik, die auf der Platte sehr gut rüberkommt. Auf dieser Platte kann man Sam Cooke nochmal völlig neu entdecken. Viele seiner schönsten Lieder hören sich hier nicht mehr so sauber und glatt gebügelt an, sondern die ganze Kraft seiner Stimme ist hier zu hören. Ein Muss für Sam-Coooke-Fans!

No words. Sam Cooke is and always will be the man!

The record is as expected. Quality good. Obviously a very old live recording and the sound accordingly but being present at a great moment in time is very special. What an artist

The best live recording ever! This album was delivered on time and was a great birthday present.
