Joe Cocker - Alive In America

Joe Cocker — Alive In America (Denver) 2LP

Limited edition "Marbled Coffee" vinyl

John Robert "Joe" Cocker was a British singer known for his gritty, bluesy voice and dynamic stage performances that featured expressive body movements. Most of his best-known singles, such as "Feeling Alright" and "Unchain My Heart, " were recordings of songs written by other songwriters, though he composed a number of songs for most of his albums as well, often in conjunction with a songwriting partner Chris Stainton.

His first album featured a recording of the Beatles' "With a Little Help from My Friends" which brought him to near-instant stardom. The song reached No. 1 in the U.K. in 1968, became a staple of his many live shows (Woodstock and the Isle of Wight in 1969, the Party At The Palace in 2002). Alive in America is a live album documenting Joe Cocker's concert performance in Denver, Colorado on May 2, 1981. Released for the first time on marbled coffee color vinyl, as a double LP, and limited to 50 copies in North America.
