"American Masters" Sam Cooke: Crossing Over 2010

Synopsis:

In 1958, when Sam Cooke crossed over from gospel to popular music, he ran the risk of alienating his gospel fans by embracing "the devil's music." Instead, he set in motion a chain of events that altered the course of popular music and race relations in America.
