Having been a great - albeit latter-day - admirer of this revolutionary vocalist, I found this analysis of his life, career and untimely death particularly intriguing.
To say that he seemed to have accumulated a lot of 'enemies' would be an understatement. Not only, does it seem, that organised crime (mafia) had reason to feel threatened by Cooke's ambitions, but also the American government amongst other institutions had reasoned concerns.
The conclusion highlighted food for thought of the obvious disparity in the evidence presented to the public enquiry.
Something's just not right.
Whether a political 'hit', an organised crime 'hit' or both... this great man's name seems to have been unjustly tarnished.
Very informative and intriguing documentary.
