^ remastered -----> is that politically correct these days?
 
Mother mother ocean, I have heard you call.

 
Took a slightly different trip down memory lane tonight and played this clip for a work buddy who is hanging up his viewfinder at age 83.
He's in much better physical condition that I've been in for the last ten years, that's for sure...he used to wear me to a frazzle when I worked for him back when this song was a big hit, but he'd never heard it.
He really liked it, said it reminded him a little of the music he grew up listening to.

 
^ I always said a good band needs a good horn section....you can quote me on that

 
Those were the days...

Good find Elora. My favorite Joe Cocker is when he was on SNL with John Belushi.
