Never heard his version prior to this. Me like!
Maybe even better than Jimmy Cliff's version.

That was a hard livin' man with serious pipes, here's to you, Mr Cocker.

That guy could do a cover of a song by pretty much anyone, and be better than the original.

JJ Cale, Entwisile, and other rockers that have gone before him, seem, at least to this old guy, not quite as profound.

Listen to this one more time. It is powerful

I love his music. Worst stage dancer ever.

Just an extraordinary performer. He always had an amazing band and his live shows cut me to ribbons. Bon voyage Joe and I hope to see you on the other side.
