RIP, Joe Cocker

Today we lost yet another unique voice of rock music. Joe passed away from lung cancer at age 70. This video with John Belushi may have been the best segment ever on "Saturday Night Live." We saw him in concert back in the day at JMU in Harrisonburg, VA, and much as I dug his music, it was very disappointing. He was falling down drunk, as happened a lot then. The opening act was...Little Feat. We'd never heard of them, but we got our dose of rock from those guys that night. Joe...not so much. http://youtu.be/aZsOyO_lXD8
