Pete Cooke

Yes of course you can hear echoes of Sam Cooke in New York namesake Pete’s emotionally wracked “I Won’t Cry” but that shouldn’t put anybody off. This is just an awesome piece of deep soul which just gets better and better – I defy anybody not to be affected by Cooke’s desparate screaming. This superb track battles with Bobby Sheen’s “My Shoes Keep Walking Back to You” as the best 45 on Dimension.

The uptempo flip which has a good rock ‘n’ roll feel to it has some merit as well. But sadly the least said about Pete Cooke’s 45 the better.
