I have this on a SP song compilation. I believe it was taken from their King Biscuit Flower Hour show, circa 1978

Pick up "Sam Cooke - Portrait of a Legend" - it's great - got everything on it.

or find the Live at the Harlem Square Club live album. The songs you will recognize (the pop material), but the gospel background of Sam Cooke the singer is MUCH more pronounced with lots of improvisation. Totally different than the studio versions.
