Live at the Harlem Square Club is a classic live album by soul singer Sam Cooke, backed by well known R&B musicians like King Curtis, Clifton White and Cornell Dupree.

Although recorded in 1963, the LP didn't see the light until 1985. Live at the Harlem Square Club easily stands the test of time next to albums such as James Brown's Live at the Apollo or Jackie Wilson's Live at the Copa. The recording captures Cooke in a very different context from his studio work, performing in a small, packed club. The setlist includes hits like “Twistin’ the Night Away”, “Bring It On Home to Me”, and “Having a Party”, all delivered with more grit and improvisation than their studio counterparts.

In 2003, the album was ranked number 443 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, and deservedly so.

Sam Cooke Live at the Harlem Square Club is part of the Groove Classics collection.
