Our "April of Awesome Eras" continues with our '80s U2 tribute, and a music memorial for the "New Coke."
While it contained hits like "Another Saturday Night" and "Good Times," the album is most memorable for Cooke's most well-known and signature song "A Change Is Gonna Come." Though only a modest hit compared to his previous singles, the song came to exemplify the Civil Rights Movement during the 1960s, and has gained in popularity and critical acclaim in the decades since its release. It's prominently featured in the Amazon original film "One Night in Miami."
