I remember seeing him back in the day late 60's early 70's, he was quite the showman, and that husky gravely voice. R.I.P Mr Cocker you will be missed by more than one generation.
Joe was one of the most unique singers EVER !! He was instantly recognizable. I am actually a fan of late 60's - 70's rock, so I am saddened. Joe will be missed. My condolences to his family and friends.
My parents, my wife and I got to see him in concert on my birthday back in 2012. Good times. There's a t-shirt that says, "I may be old, but I've seen all the good bands". Seems to apply here.
