JOE COCKER
The unmistakable gravely voice of Joe
Cocker had been pretty
silent of late. But even if he never releases another album, at least
there is a wealth of fine recordings that can be enjoyed over & over again.
This compilation kicks of with the well known Up Where We Belong (duet
with Jennifer Warnes
for the soundtrack tune to An
Officer And A Gentleman).
Joe was never a pretty boy and his voice is hardly that of an angel -
he made quite an impact when he appeared at the original Woodstock
Festival alongside
the likes of Jimmy
Hendrix, The
Who, Joan
Baez and other greats
of the late 60s. His conveyance of passionate emotion with his signature
voice however captivated millions (and still does). Some other marvelous
tunes include Many Rivers To Cross, Sandpaper Cadillac, Cry Me A River
and Something. And not to forget With A Little Help From My
Friends and You Are So Beautiful.
