Wow. I first saw him on SNL back in the 70's and he was one strange guy. But he was himself, and his music was off the wall.

Belushi did a great impression of Cocker as NC points out.
They sang together on SNL also.

For a man who never wrote a song, he sure did make a lot of music his very own.

I liked his voice and music from the very beginning, others had to grow on me.
Keep your Hat ON was a favorite of mine and the hot girl I was hanging with at the time. |

I listened to him when I was a teen - during his comeback in the 80s - saw him live in 87 in a small venue. Amazing. I still see him in front of me ... RIP Joe - and thanks for the great music.

"Many Rivers to Cross" - wow. May be my new favorite.
His version of "Sail Away" was well sung, but he really fuched up the lyrics.
