Tonight’s WBLM Mini-Concert [VIDEO]

He was born John Robert Cocker in Sheffield, England on May 20, 1944. Tonight we remember the great Joe Cocker on his birthday with a WBLM Mini-Concert from the legendary Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour. The 1970 tour featured an amazing band with Leon Russell and members of Derek and the Dominoes. His raspy, soulful voice and unique moves were like no other. During his 50 year career, he was best known for cover versions of songs by the Beatles, Traffic, and the Boxtops to name a few. He always made them his own. Sadly we said goodbye to Joe in December 2014, when he lost his battle with cancer at his home in Crawford, Colorado.

Join us tonight at 6:20 for live Joe Cocker with a little help from his friends, the Mad Dogs and Englishmen on the WBLM MIni-Concert!

Watch Joe and friends preachin' it at the Fillmore East in 1970.
