Two of the Most Talented (and Prettiest)
I've written in the past about the strong friendship between Muhammad Ali and Sam Cooke. Now here's a photo I've never seen from the pair in March 1964, just before Ali knocked out Liston in Miami (and met the Beatles). Sam singing in a Miami club that week was immortalized in the opening of the Will Smith Ali film--and in one of the greatest live albums ever, Live at the Harlem Square Club. Sam died a few months later. The photo is part of a gallery of guy who shot many of the greats of the era.
