This Cooke Book needs a new recipe

It's difficult to pigeonhole this show. It's not a concert. It's not a tribute cover band. It's not theater. What it is seems to be a couple of hours of the great songs of Sam Cooke boiled down to a musical theater audience level and delivered with practiced smiles, dance moves, patter with the band and a timorous set of vocal chords that sometimes hit but often missed channeling one of the great singers of our time.
