Critical reception[edit]
AllMusic critic Ron Wynn gave The Best of Sam Cooke three-and-a-half out of five stars and called it 'an above-average greatest hits collection, although no sampler could fully convey Sam Cooke's genius.'[4] In Blender magazine, Robert Christgau was more critical, giving it one star and recommending listeners overlook the album in favor of the 30-song compilation Portrait of a Legend: 1951–1964.[5]
