 | ma duron (63) 11/09/2005 | Fred Bronson, in 'The Billboard Book of Number One Hits', says: "Cooke's influence can be heard in singers as disparate as Otis Redding, Rod Stewart, Marvin Gaye and Mick Jagger." Most of that influence, one might add, derives from the spell that this song, Sam Cooke's only Number One hit (December, 1957), cast on a generation of singers.
