RIP Joe Cocker
 

Dead at 70 from cancer.

Singer Joe Cocker dies aged 70 after cancer battle - BBC News

Well that sucks ..... R. I. P. !


Saw him live over the years, first time Leon Russell was playing piano for him, latest was when he opened for Tina Turner.

I thought he died years ago.

R.I.P. best porn name for a rocker EVER.

Such a loss. RIP

Sad

Date of story: 22 December 2014

I kind of thought it was like Deja Vu all over again.

Still, RIP for one of the greatest :thumbsup

I was just thinking,I thought he was dead already

Canadian news is kinda' slow. :1orglaugh

My wife just yelled upstairs to me that he'd died. Ya, ya...blame the wife. :1orglaugh

Oh, that's sad. RIP man, we all will be there some day. He was da man!

Even worse - I'm lookin' at one of his vids on youtube - and noticed one of the top commenters saying RIP - was me...a year ago. :1orglaugh

They say the braincells are the first to go.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Ha I thought so! I remember going back and listening to Mad Dogs & Englishmen when it happened (great album!).

Oh shit that's funny! LOL Time to put down the bong.....wait, no it isn't. :D

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yep that was sad news.

Thanks for letting me know he didn't die 10 years ago.

For the record - I fired Steve Harvey as my fact checker.

Always loved this one...

RIP (again) for an amazing singer.

Mad Dogs and Englishmen is one of the all time great live albums far as I am concerned. Leon Russell. Say no more.

The wife and I rented 9 1/2 Weeks last weekend (she forced me to sit through 50 Shades...so I retaliated with Kim Basinger) - and it was amazing how the 'You Can Leave Your Hat On' scene in the living room was still hot.

Classic performance! Love it.

I heard Joe wasn't expecting John to join him on stage, let alone do an impression of him. And was pissed off that his gig had been turned into a comedy skit without him being told about it beforehand. And he considered suing SNL over it for a while.

I suppose Joe eventually came to his senses and appreciated it for the epicness that it was.

RIP to both Joe and John. :thumbsup

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:thumbsup

This is really sad... :( RIP legend...

if it was 2014, I'd be touched...

:1orglaugh You have to apologize...

RIP legend...

Have allot of great memories of his music.....What a great loss, may he rest in peace.

Rip Joezz

You've mistaken me for my fellow Canuck countrymen who are over-zealous with apologies.

No need to thank me for an entertaining thread. :winkwink:

Sad news.

If you attend the ceremony, can you leave your hat on?

Now seriously, it's a very big loss... RIP.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Thank you for bringing up [i]Leave Your Hat On[i]. That was probably my favorite Cocker piece. His Beatles cover was fine, but no where close to LYHO.

R.I.P Joe.Great man he was

I saw him with Elvis in concert the other day

:(((( Rest in Peace...
