This was Sam Cooke's second chart hit after his opening smash, "You Send Me." Cooke had recorded earlier in the year for Specialty as "Dale Cook," releasing a different version of "Forever." Once he signed with RCA (which owned Keen), Specialty released this single to capitalize on Cooke's new fame as a soul singer. Note: This is Specialty's second pressing from the 1970s. The "Forever" label has a stain where a sticker was removed.
