Summertime is upon us which means (at least for myself) that sweating in the sunshine with no plans on the calendar for weeks has become routine. Listening to soul music is a remedy often employed to relieve these blues, but this album does much more. The energy of Sam Cooke's vocals holds strong throughout the entirety of the set and the gushingly-romantic lyrics combine to make twisting away in the living room unavoidable whether it be with or without your baby. The momentum that Cooke manages to maintain with the crowd throughout the entire show makes this an album that can be played straight through without a single dull lapse. So if you're a fan of greats like Al Green, Bill Withers, and the lot, or if listening to drone and dubstep isn't helping you get down this Summer, this album is for you.

I'd also like to note that this is one of the best live albums ever ever ever ever.
