Details: Amazon.ca Undisputed king of cover art, Joe Cocker is part of an endangered species: that of performers, a category of artists taken lightly since the end of the 1960s and the advent of songwriters. It does not matter if Joe writes or not what he sings, since he lives it and puts it into voice with force and conviction. A former pub singer, he did, after all, find success covering The Beatles' "With A Little Help From My Friends." Since then, success has never deserted Joe Cocker, who has reappropriated many ballads and other love songs, transforming them into cries from the heart skinned alive. Here, he pays homage to his model and avowed influence, Ray Charles, who popularized "Unchain My Heart" in 1962. We will also appreciate on this album his heartbreaking version of "I Stand In Wonder", embellished with reggae rhythms, or the slow that kills, "Isolation", which restores the smoky atmosphere of a piano bar. --Ruby Wednesday Product description Unchain My Heart CD Capitol Records, CDP 564-7 48285 2, 1987, 10 Track
