"Another Saturday Night" is a 1963 hit single by Sam Cooke from the album Ain't That Good News. The song was written by Cooke while touring in England when staying in a hotel where no female guests were allowed. It reached No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was No. 1 on the R&B chart for the single week.
Session drummer Hal Blaine played on it with John Anderson on trumpet, John Ewing on trombone, Jewell Grant on sax, Ray Johnson on piano, and Clifton White and Rene Hall on guitar, and Clifford Hills on bass.
Cash Box described it as "a tale of a guy who’s got the money, but not the gal to spend it on," stating that "the teen set won’t take the deck seriously, but will find it a highly pleasurable listening/dance floor treat."
Cat Stevens' 1974 cover charted at No. 6 on the U.S. Hot 100, and No 1 in Canada and UK.
