Joe Cocker for the "Smooth Jazz" generation. "She Believes In Me" written by Bryan Adams and Eliot Kennedy with backing vocals by Bryan leads the way. I bought this CD for that song alone. That song and "Lie To Me" makes the purchase a worthwhile one. However I would have liked to have seen Ol' Joe cut loose as he does on the latter cut, more often than he does.
A very good CD, normal for Cocker. Excellent purchase price for this cd. Great music from Joe Cocker as always.
I'm an avid Joe fan and I enjoyed most of the tunes on the CD and but I wish he would lose the strings and bring back the horn section. Something about a string section with that voice that just doesn't do it. It cries for a couple of trumpets and a saxophone.
There are certain times when music speaks truth. Music that strikes you, as COL Kurtz reminds us, "Like a silver bullet...right between the eyes...".
Among those music experiences that mark a life: Jackson Browne "The Pretender"; The Who, "Quadrophenia"; Joe Cocker, "No Ordinary World".
It's a short list, a short life. Buy it and experience the feeling of anxiety, passion and wonderment of why we are here. Joe Cocker, like Bob Seger, expresses love, life, and emotion in a way that is difficult for most men. This is one you'll listen to on `repeat' for days at a time.
Joe has matured to a performer, a man who has powerful observations on his (and your) life ala Sade, "My Father's Son". Reminiscent of the sense of awe we felt hearing CSNY for the first time, to the anthems of Jefferson Starship, "First We Take Manhattan".
You cannot go home again, but you can mature in your reflections upon it.
It's sad to see a great talent like Joe Cocker go to waste on easy listening drivel like this. The voice is still there, but until he finds some decent material and hires a real band, don't bother.
