The traditional sport of hunting the “gamecock” is the foundation of the word “Cocker”. The term “Cocker” denotes those spaniels which were used for hunting this bird. Many years ago hunting dogs were classified according to size. Those over 25 pounds were classified as Field Spaniels and those under 25 pounds were classified generally as [...]
That didn’t take long. Yesterday I told you about the story that was published making out Will Smith to be a daring hero who rescues dogs and provides wisdom to growing boys. Well today, he has taken the wisdom thing just a bit further. According to the National Enquirer, Will Smith is funding a new [...]

Churches Hold 'Blessing of the Animals' Services WASHINGTON - Churches in the U.S. and abroad have celebrated the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi by inviting pets and their owners to "Blessing of the Animals" services. Episcopal clergy from Washington's National Cathedral prayed over animals at a local shelter. Pets attending a service in the Netherlands included a canary, a goldfish, a guinea pig, a handful of cats and more than two dozen dogs. As the Dutch priest spoke of the comfort animals can bring, a dog barked in seeming approval. During the blessings, the goldfish was in its element as the priest sprinkled it, but a cocker spaniel tried to drink the holy water. [Maybe he was thirsty? How about letting the animals drink before bringing out the Holy Water?] Copyright 2007 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved. (used with permission)Thank you for this article!
Joe Cocker hat ja seine Eigenheiten wenn er sich beim Singen bewegt. Laut eigener Angabe bewunderte er Ray Charles, welcher ja bekanntlich blind war und aus purer Bewunderung ahmte er seine Bewegungen nach. Bewegungen, welche bei einem Sehenden doch etwas merkwürdig anmuten bzw. schon recht angetrunken wirken. Da drängen sich ja geradezu Parodien auf, welche hier von John Belushi (die ein Häkfte der Blues Brothers) recht gut nachgeahmt wird.

Joe Cocker - Mad Dogs & Englishmen(1970)320kbpsListening to this CD brings back a lot of memories. Mad Dogs & Englishmen was just about the most elaborate album that A&M Records had ever released, back in 1971, a double LP in a three-panel, fold-out, gatefold sleeve, with almost 80 minutes of music inside and a ton of photos, graphics, and annotation wrapping around it. A live recording done in tandem with a killer documentary film of the same U.S. tour, it was recorded at the Fillmore East, where the movie was a cross-country affair, and the two were, thus, completely separate entities -- also, as people couldn't "buy" the film in those days, the double LP has lingered longer in the memory, by virtue of its being on shelves, and also being taken off those shelves to be played. Unlike a lot of other "coffee table"-type rock releases of the era, such as Woodstock and The Concert for Bangladesh, people actually listened to Mad Dogs & Englishmen -- most of its content was exciting, a

Balushi's performance as Joe Cocker was not over the top. Here's the real guy. I've got a worn-out LP of Joe Cocker on tour - The Rolling Thunder Tour, I think it was called. Probably was that tour on this...
Number 633Joe Cocker"Feelin' Alright"(1969)..Genre:Rock Joe Cocker has to be one of the more "unsung" (excuse the pun) rock stars of all time. Although he was a Woodstock hero he never got the claim to fame he probably deserved. I was fortunate to see his performance here in Auckland, New Zealand (Dirkadirkastan) in late 80's or early 90's, talk about a set of pipes on that man! Of course it didn't help that i was up the front and not far from the main speakers. (What did you say? Huh?).The closest thing we have as a performer here in that vein in New Zealand is Ritchie Pickett who displays a fantastic act in itself if not just the singing! Just ask anyone at the 2006 Devonport Wine & Food festival ~ just watch out for those miniature scotch bottles he throws at Emo's. I told Ritchie when he signed a CD of his "F**K you David Chapman xxx Love Quentin" that i would make him famous one day online. He just nodded, flicked his cigg and said "Whatever"Joe Cocker's debut album hold

I forgot all about the NME Awards so was not aware of this until I read Bizzare in The Sun today... ....what a bloody marvelous idea!There is more on this over at Big Stereo... ...you might even be able to download it or something.
Jarvis Cocker releases his first solo album on 13th November.Here's a sneak preview of one of the tracks.I Will Kill AgainAnd here's the uncensored version of Cunts Are Still Running The World which appears to have been left off the album.
Joe Cocker - Joe Cocker! (1969)320kbps Joe Cocker's first three A&M albums form the bedrock of a career that spans over three decades. While Cocker certainly wasn't always in top form during this stretch -- thanks to alcohol problems and questionable comeback moves in the '80s and '90s -- his early records did inform the classic pub rock sound later credited to proto-punk figures like Graham Parker and Brinsley Schwarz. On those early records, Cocker mixed elements of late-'60s English blues revival recordings (John Mayall, et al.) with the more contemporary sounds of soul and pop; a sound fused in no small part by producer and arranger Leon Russell, whose gumbo mix figures prominently on this eponymous release and the infamous Mad Dogs & Englishmen live set. Russell's sophisticated swamp blues aesthetic is felt directly with versions of his gospel ballad "Hello, Little Friend" and Beatles-inspired bit of New Orleans pop -- and one of Cocker's biggest hits -- "Delta Lady."
