"Sam Cooke was the first black R&B artist to have creative control over his career. (Curtis Mayfield also did because he was a producer at the black owned Okeh record label) This was in the early Sixties long before Marvin Gaye's legendary battle with Barry Gordy to get "What's Going On?" released..."
