L.C. Cooke, like older brother Sam Cooke, was born in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Soon after his birth the family moved to Chicago. L.C. was the fifth of ten children of Rev Charles and Annie May Cook (the “e” was added by both Sam and L.C. when they pursued their respective recording careers).
Following the family’s move to Chicago, L.C. was part of a gospel group, organized by Sam, called The Singing Children along with brother Charles Cooke and two of their sisters. By the 1940s, the Cooke brothers achieved some success as members of gospel’s Highway Q.C.’s. In 1956, L.C. joined a secular doo-wop vocal group called the Magnificents who recorded for Vee-Jay Records. Shortly thereafter, L.C. Cooke was signed to Chess where he cut I Need Your Love. In 1960 he signed with SAR Records, the label founded by his brother Sam. At SAR he recorded a string of single releases including The Wobble and Put Me Down Easy. Following the 1964 death of Sam Cooke and the concurrent sale of SAR, L.C. Cooke toured with the Upsetters, Little Richard’s legendary backing band. More recently, all of his SAR recordings, together with some of his efforts for Chess, were compiled by ABKCO Records and released as L.C. Cooke: The Complete SAR Recordings, his first legitimately released full-length album.
ABKCO CEO and President Jody Klein revealed Cooke’s passing to his staff, many of whom had grown close to L.C. over years of involvement with his brother’s and his own catalogs. He commented, “It’s with a sad heart that I inform you of the passing of our great friend L.C. Cooke whose talents, humanity and charm we shall all miss.”
Peter Guralnick, Sam Cooke’s biographer (Dream Boogie: The Triumph of Same Cooke, Little, Brown & Company, 2005) in his liner notes for The Complete SAR Recordings wrote, “L.C. is one of the warmest, most charming and gracious people you’d ever want to meet. Also, one of the most truth-telling.”

Verse 1]
I don't know why it should be
But lately I can plainly see
You're cool to me
Do what you wanna do
But darling, all I ask of you
Put me down easy (Put me down easy)
[Chorus]
Put me down easy, baby, yeah (Put me down easy, baby)
Don't make it rougher and don't make me suffer
Put me down easy
[Verse 2]
If you found somebody new
There is nothing I can do
But ask you to
Try and do me just the same as pilots do big aeroplanes
Put me down easy (Put me down easy)
[Chorus]
Put me down easy, baby, yeah, baby (Put me down easy, baby)
Don't make it rougher and don't make me suffer
Just put me down easy
[Chorus]
Yeah, put me down easy (Put me down easy)
Put me down easy, baby, hey, hey (Put me down easy, baby)
Don't make it rougher, darling, don't make me suffer
Just put me down easy
Wait another week or two
Before you tell me we are through
But when you do
Treat me as gentle as you would a million dollars
Put me down easy (Put me down easy)
[Chorus]
Put me down easy, baby, yeah (Put me down easy, baby)
Don't you make it rougher and don't make me suffer
Just put me down easy

Great song by LC Cooke. You could hear Sam Cooke in the back ground.
@samcooke7140
I like this song. Together again, Rest in Power L.C.
@ChrisC9276
I knew LC near the end of his life. He came to our facility.
Such a nice guy. Sounds just as good as Sam. Should have been a bigger star. Imagine what those brothers would have been if decades of great music wasn't stolen by Sam's killer. :(
