Sam Cooke was the R&B dw male vocalist of the late fifties and early sixties. Songs like “Chain Gang,” “You Send Me.” “Cupid,” “A Change is Gonna Come,” and many many more proved him to be the forerunner of virtually all Black male superstars. Extremely handsone and articulate, Cooke was on the verge of busting wide open into other entertainment capacities, such as TV and motion pictures. But, like Jesse Belvin, Otis Redding, and countless others before and after him, Sam Cooke never saw his peak develop and his life came to an end prematurely. But today, nearly ten years after his death, Sam Cooke is still an influential force in contemporary music. His records are still often heard on many radio stations across the country. His songs continue to be recorded by both pop and R&B acts. And the muscians which were part of his studio sessions and stage bands, have gone to make names for themselves. Lou Rawls began his career as a background vocalist on many of Cooke’s smash singles, most notably, “Bring It Home To Me.” Since then Lou Rawls has become a major soloist with “Dead End Street,” “Love is a Hurting Thing,” and “Natural Man.” Johnnie Taylor, who like Rawls, started recording as a background singer with Cooke, f SUBSCRIBE I TODAY THE AUGUSTA NEWS-REVIEW L P.

The Association, an independent group of lawyers employed in the program, produced documents authored by Marshall Boarman, a long-time advisor to acting OEO Director, Howard J. Phillips, who now serves as acting director of the evaluation division of the program. The documents emphasize the Administration’s hostility to the efforts of legal aid attorneys to help low income persons collectively through administrative and legislative reforms rather than concentrating on the poor as individuals in coping with existing laws.
