Joe Cocker
Mad dogs and EnglishmenOriginal OZ 2XLP released in 1970 on A&M Records. Cat: SAML933924. This album has a gatefold sleeve.
Mad Dogs & Englishmen was just about the most elaborate album that A&M Records had ever released, back in 1971 with almost 80 minutes of music. 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. 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, and its sound, a veritable definition of big-band rock with three dozen players working behind the singer, was unique. This record was also just as much a showcase for Leon Russell as it was for Joe Cocker, which A&M probably didn't mind a bit, as Russell was selling millions of records at the time. As is now known, and it's recounted in the new notes, the tour from which this album was drawn all but wiped out Joe Cocker on a psychic level because the music was presented on such a vast scale.
