Joe Cocker!

Dave Marsh, Creem, November 1969

OF ALL the rock stars, past or present, you could meet, Joe Cocker probably ranks with the two or three least interesting conversationalists. Not that he's not a great performer; it's just, what do you write about him? He's a hell of a nice guy, I mean he really is. I like the dude, I love his singing but there ain't that much there to talk about. Except that he sure does sing good.
