I'm so sorry, for everyone. I know you did your level best to help him, just as you do with everyone you meet. You've made their lives that much better, @chickenman
I know it hurts, but I also know you have great wisdom and maybe better friends.

Didn't follow the artist, but my deepest sympathy go out to Chickenman. It's hard to loose a loved one, be strong.

Great video. Look how joyful every body in the band is singing and playing with Joe.
Also look into to Joe's eyes at the beginning, to me he seems tired.
Saw the last show of this tour in Denver and made several Cocker style chicken pot pies for him and band. Cocker chicken pot pies have buttery flakey crust and must be swimming in gravy, Joe oh so loved my Cocker chicken pot pies...He was definitely exhausted that night in Denver, it showed in the 1st few songs, he killed it but I could tell he was way tired...
Another way cool thing Joe and I had in common. that is our wives. Joe's wife Pam saw something in him he had lost due to drinking and drugging.
The rock star life style was fun no more and the days were dark, he lost faith in himself. Pam brought out the goodness in him made him believe in his self and brought out the best in him.
My wife did the same for me...
Still hurting funny Joe feeling all right no doubt...
Love Ya man.....

From the article....
The fact that his act wasn’t an act. He was really engaged with the music. He is the music. I think that’s what’s so beautiful about him. He was exaggerating, but only because he felt the music so strongly; he connected so deeply with it. I think there’s a level where black and white isn’t an issue anymore; it’s, “how deep do you let music go?” I look at my 19-year-olds in my class, and their emotional worlds don’t hinge on music. And I think Joe Cocker is the perfect personification of someone for whom music was everything. It was life itself. that’s his great legacy
Joe told me of this once.
We were sitting in his living room listening to this pre released CD, little wing with Carlos Santana and he started feeling the music, doing his thing, Joe is the real deal...

Tribute to Joe from Charlie Midnight.
Joe Cocker Lives On
Joe Cocker is not gone. He lives on through his music and his raw emotional voice that will be appreciated for generations to come. There will not be another like him. He had a voice too true for auto-tuning and a soulfulness too wild to be restrained. I was blessed to produce two albums for him and bear witness to the purity of his vocal power. I sat in the control room watching him, more as a fan than a produ...cer. Each time he sang a song it was a new interpretation. No two performances were the same.
His singing was uncalculating and uncompromising. Four or five ‘takes’ and he was done. It was full-out each time and there was no going back to ‘punch in’ or ‘double’ a line. Joe was able to touch your heart in the studio and on stage: in his younger days when he reached high falsetto screams; or in his later years where he often could not get to the note but you were moved by whatever sound came through that weathered, gravelly voice.
Joe Cocker is not gone and will not be forgotten as long as exists his transcendent, re-imagined rendition of “A Little Help From My Friends,” captured in the historic film of the 1969 Woodstock Concert. In that indelible moment he raised the art of interpretative singing and a Beatles song became a Joe Cocker classic. The film will be watched by future generations and each one will view Joe Cocker with the same awe as we all did when after the backing vocals sang “do you need anybody” he let out a primal scream for the ages that could never be notated or taught. I watched it on screen as a teenager, amazed and profoundly moved. Years later, as Joe’s producer, I remembered that feeling and as he sang in the studio I felt it again and again and again. Those memories and feelings will never leave me and neither will Joe Cocker.
