I’ve been a fan of Joe Cocker’s music since the 1960. Sure, Joe has a gravelly voice, but he can sure belt out a song! Have a Little Faith came out in 1994 and presents a nice mix of songs. I like the covers of “Summer in the City” and “The Great Divide” a lot!
Legends of English Rock from 1992 feature not The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, nor The Who. Instead, Marianne Faithful, The Nice, The Yardbirds, and Small Faces show up. The biggest Name singer on this compilation CD is Rod Stewart! Do you remember these songs? Any favorites here?
