This collection focuses on a key decade or more in their career, during which the great soul singer Sam Cooke was a member of the group, not only learning his own trade as a vocalist, but also making a highly distinctive contribution to the group's sound. He was succeeded in the group after he went solo in 1957, by another future major soul start Johnnie Taylor, who contributes to the later titles on the collection. This great value 54-track 2-CD set includes the A and B sides of all the Specialty singles released during the period plus the A and B sides of their releases on Sam Cooke's own SAR label through 1960 and into 1961 accommodating as many as we could within the 2-CD format. It charts a progression from pure gospel through to a style which has much in common with '60s soul, reflecting the impact which the two great vocalists had on their creative approach, and it's a hugely entertaining collection, complete with a substantial booklet with full discographical and chart information.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBy and By Pt. 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e By and By Pt. 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm Still Living on Mother's Prayer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Feel Like My Time Ain't Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e In That Awful Hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Have a Right to the Tree of Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e How Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Lord Is My Shepherd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm Gonna Move in the Room with the Lord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Faith and Grace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Peace in the Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jesus Gave Me Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Come Let's Go Back to God\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Joy Joy to My Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm Gonna Build on That Shore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Until Jesus Calls Me Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e How Far Am I from Canaan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e It Won't Be Very Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me Go Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Just Another Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jesus Paid the Debt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blessed Be the Name of the Lord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e End of My Journey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e He'll Welcome Me (To My Home)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e He's My Friend Until the End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Come and Go to That Land\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jesus I'll Never Forget\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Any Day Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nearer to Thee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Be with Me Jesus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm So Glad (Trouble Don't Last Always)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e One More River\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wonderful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Farther Along\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jesus Wash Away My Troubles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Touch the Hem of His Garment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e In a Few More Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pilgrim of Sorrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sinner Run to Jesus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Were You There'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Love of God\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Out on a Hill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Loved Ones Are Waiting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Until Then\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e When the Gates Swing Open\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Lord Laid His Hands on Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Stand By Me Father\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e He's Been a Shelter for Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wade in the Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e He Cares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jesus Be a Fence Around Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm a Pilgrim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Listen to the Angels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Toiling on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50553777619218,"sku":"824046316921","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-soul-stirrers-singles-collection-1950-61-cd","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
