After starting out as an unsuccessful pop singer (working under the name Vance Arnold), Joe Cocker 

found his niche singing rock and soul in the pubs of England with his superb backing group, the Grease Band. 

He hit number one in the U.K. in November 1968 with his version of the Beatles' "A Little Help from My Friends." 

His career really took off after he sang that song at Woodstock in August 1969. A second British 

hit came with a version of Leon Russell's "Delta Lady" in the fall of 1969 (by then, Russell was Cocker's 

musical director) and both of his albums, With a Little Help from My Friends (April 1969) and 

Joe Cocker! (November 1969), went gold in America. In 1970, his cover of the Box Tops hit "The Letter" 

became his first U.S. Top Ten. Cocker's first peak of success came when Russell organized the 

Mad Dogs & Englishmen tour of 1970, featuring Cocker and over 40 others 

and resulting in a third gold album and a concert film

Joe Cocker's debut album holds up extraordinarily well across four decades, 

the singer's performance bolstered by some very sharp playing, not only by his established 

sideman/collaborator Chris Stainton, but also some top-notch session musicians, among them 

drummer Clem Cattini, Steve Winwood on organ, and guitarists Jimmy Page and Albert Lee, 

all sitting in. It's Cocker's voice, a soulful rasp of an instrument backed up by Madeline Bell, 

Sunny Weetman and Rossetta Hightower that carries this album and makes "Change in Louise," 

"Feeling Alright," "Just Like a Woman," "I Shall Be Released," and even "Bye Bye Blackbird" 

into profound listening experiences. But the surprises in the arrangements, tempo, and 

approaches taken help make this an exceptional album. Tracks like "Just Like a Woman," with 

its soaring gospel organ above a lean textured acoustic and light electric accompaniment, 

and the guitar-dominated rendition of "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" -- the formal debut 

of the Grease Band on record -- all help make this an exceptional listening experience...(AllMusic)
