As a black guy who grew up with Motown and 1970’s reggae... this was the song that had me fall in love with white Blues Rock music. The intro is a creation of genius!! And Joe Cocker’s talented voice, passion and performance is magical. Music is the gift that unites the world more than anything else. I love it. 💖🙏🏾🎼🎸🥁🎼
I almost got drafted, but the lottery had just begun and my # was over 300. To say I'm thankful is an understatement Guys older than me had a better opportunity to experience epic rock shows, like this, but the downside to that is the tragedy of the Vietnam experience.

One of the few Beatles songs that was outdone by the cover version. Cockers version is the one that takes you to spiritual plains untouched. Stunning way he made the song so soulful
Kids today will never understand this is what it means to be a singer. No autotune, no studio effects, no overdubs, just straight passion and raw vocal talent with all the imperfections on display.
PURE FIRE! This song was arranged, to perfection. The soulful voice, and performance from Joe Cocker, could easily place this song as one of the musical Wonders of the World. The 4 minute mark until the end, is musical thunder. The Greaseband, brung this song in, then took it out, to the NEXT level. The Drummer, Should be arrested for playing so damn Good. Thank You, To everyone that contributed to this powerful Song.
Certainly Cocker was at his absolute best during this time - '68 to '71. Spine tinglingly,soulfully strong. Better still are his (live) versions of The Beatles; "Something " and Let It Be" - with The Grease Band,around this same time. Highly recommended and,for mine; Cocker classics. Let us give thanks to UA-cam and its supporters. Lest we would not enjoy such treasures.
‘It’s really sad to hear about Joe’s passing. He was a lovely northern lad who I loved a lot and like many people I loved his singing,” McCartney says of Cocker, who has died at the age of 70 after a battle with lung cancer. “I was especially pleased when he decided to cover ‘With A Little Help From My Friends’ and I remember him and Denny Cordell coming round to the studio in Saville Row and playing me what they’d recorded and it was just mind blowing, totally turned the song into a soul anthem and I was forever grateful for him for doing that.” -- Paul McCartney.
Never got to see Joe Cocker in this period, missed him at Lincoln Festival but saw him at Hammersmith just before he passed, he looked older and unwell and his voice was not at its best ... but when he sang the line If I sing out of tune will you walk out on me ... the audience meant it when they screamed out NO.This was his song R.I.P Mr Cocker
Saw Joe with the Grease Band in the back hall of a pub called The Toby Jug. Tolworth. in Surrey in 1968. Drove all the way from North London. An absolute blinder of a gig. Still got memories even now.
Surely one of the greatest vocal performances by anybody anywhere... ever. I still get goosebumps watching and hearing it! Awesome! If only the editor hadn't been dancing at the time he put it together! :)
As a white kid born in the 70’s my parents introduced me to this music, if it wasn’t for them i wouldn’t be here posting this today, there’s nothing about this version you can dislike, one of the greatest cover versions ever
Mathew Fisher from Procul Harum, Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin joint the grease band, big big band for the greatest voice of Joe Cocker, very high performance, thank God for to be alive for listen this jewel, enjoy yourself Brothers and Sisters in all around the world !
B J Wilson the drummer from P H, played drums on the studio verso of this song.One of the most underrated musicians of all time. He wrote the drum part. Matthew Fisher did not play organ on this song, Tommy Eye did.
Sure , you've nailed it . Fell in love with this song at 16 years, and it has ever been ringing in my head when am low, quite an inspired, inspirational song.
My favorite memories of Joe Cocker are with Mad Dogs and Englishmen but, this is a gem with such talented musicians! One good thing about being old is you got to go to the best concerts ever
Not many have "stolen" songs from the Beatles...most wouldn't even try. A powerful performance by a most powerful performer. Joe Cocker transcended all the blues-folk-rock-pop labels that some tried to put on him over the years. At the end of the line, all we can say is that he was an immense talent. I was glad I got to know his music. BTW, I still think the Woodstock version betters this one, though. RIP, Joe.
He didn't "steal" the song. It had their blessing in advance. See above regarding Paul McCartney's quote. Both versions are incredible and completely different. I love them both.
One of the best talents of my day LEAVE YOUR HAT ON One of my favorite Didn’t appreciate it when I saw him I was just a kid But I do now!!! Will be missed
Back in '69 my Philosophy 101 teacher at Golden West Community College in Huntington Beach, CA started class with Cocker over the intercome. Great, simply great.
Never forget listening to Joe Cocker's great interpretation of this song by the fireplace at the Phi Delta Theta house 1967-1971, Allegheny College, especially in snowy days!
Cuando veía el programa los años maravillosos, este tema tuvo mucho éxito. La conocíamos como la principal canción de la serie y mucha gente la pedía en la radio.
Is this the only clip from the BBC show "How It Is" ? Didn't know the show existed, but it ran for 33 episodes from 1968. It was superceded by "The Old Grey Whistle Test". It was advertised as: "A weekly programme by the young for the young in heart. It treats its audience as reasonably intelligent and aware people instead of as suburban suet puddings". There must be more clips than this, or were they wiped?
Música maravilhosa que eu ouvia na década de 70/80. Encontrei-a depois de procurar muito tempo. Cantarolei no Google o solo inicial e, finalmente encontrei!! Obrigado pela postagem!!
Gracias por subir está joya de video aunque me pone nostálgica y no soy de esa epoca me encanta esta canción que excelente interpretación, gracias Joe hasta el infinito 🥺😣
I remember my mum playing this when I was about 8 and even then thinking man, this voice could stop an elephant in its tracks. Then when Winnie Cooper was added to the mix it became one of those life soundtrack songs.
I sat in joes front room and he played me the demo of this and showed me a telegram from Lennon n McCartney saying good luck with it he also gave me his own copy of jimmy Powell’s sugar baby record joe was a big fan of jimmy. Ray drury sheffield
There is always something to add concerning this magical creation of Joe Cocker, and that is that the original lines for guitar were created and performed by the talented Jimmy Page, in the same title album by Cocker. his first as it's said.

When can we go back?

I saw Joe sing this in Australia before l returned to Vietnam. It has stayed with me all my life. RIP Joe and see you soon brother!
Thank you for your service. Welcome home.
My brother went to Vietnam never the same became a 😢 lawyer. I'm 11 yrs younger will always believe in peaceful resolution.
I almost got drafted, but the lottery had just begun and my # was over 300.

Sorry about your brother
I first heard this when I was 15. Loved it then and love it now. Probably my most favourite song of all time.
I LOVE IT! Mega song, spiritual, grandiose! Joe Cocker ❤❤❤
Cette version est magique. Exceptionnelle !!!!!
One of the few Beatles songs that was outdone by the cover version. Cockers version is the one that takes you to spiritual plains untouched. Stunning way he made the song so soulful
I’ve always loved his covers of “She came in through the bathroom window” and “Let It Be”, too.
Its sounds like another song.
The Box Tops recorded this originally, not The Beatles
@@rebeccaprisoc6713 you are living in failure
Eternal song. 👍🇵🇪
Joe looking so fresh and sounding so smooth! The back up with the original vibrato.
To the black guy who was brought up in Motown I am 68yrs and grew up in the 60 s era. The best music ever. Lv lv music
Amen. 1970s Philly girl here! Weaned on Motown (my dad) while my mom introduced me to janis joplin and joe cocker.
Buenos días que hermosa canción precioso y que lindo esto es música años dorados de juventud y felicidad viva la música 🎶 😊 ♥ 😉 💛 💕 🎶 😊
His raspy voice was magic! RIP, Joe!
One of the great singers
I've never seen him this Young. I have a revelation If you live long enough , you will be fortunate enough to get old.
most will be that young , if you die young enough you wont have to get old
True that.@@7he5treets
My favourite version of this
Cocker is brilliant, his gravelly voice is perfect ❤
Kids today will never understand this is what it means to be a singer. No autotune, no studio effects, no overdubs, just straight passion and raw vocal talent with all the imperfections on display.
I’m one of those kids I’m almost 28 and I’ve loved this song for a long time
Nobody will ever hear another singer like Jo Cocker he was 1 of a 😇 kind

Wonderful and immortal Joe!

Das ist für mich hier die beste Version dieses wunderbaren Klassikers !

‘68-72, His Mad Dogs and Englishman live album is bloody marvellous
@@alightthatnevergoesout As is his first album With a Little Help From My Friends
I was 13 and was stunned by this spazzed out grizzly soul and to this day I love it so much
Thank you you tube for Jo Cocker
@jerrygoldfarb7739 Something get me to my ❤️ heart.
In my opinion his performance at Woodstock Festival is the most spectacular solo performance in the rock history ...
I totally agree!! 🎤🎼
Peter, Amen!
Agreed. Sends shivers up my spine every time I see/hear it, which must be hundreds of times since 1970 when I first saw the film.
Essa é dó fundo dó baú. A 53anos atrás.
Ótimo grupo.
One of the most talented Rock and Roll singers in history. One of a kind.
Great! I was blessed to share his concert several times. Exceptional!

Que belleza de canción...como canta Joe Cocker... épocas de oro que jamás volverán!!!
It doesn't get any better than this, in the world of music. I love this song.
Nossa nunca podia imaginar que essa música é de 1968. Uau! Bom com Joe Cocker tudo é possível pois ele é imortal.
É de 67 e é dos Beatles, o cover é do Joe Cocker

I seen Joe several times at Long Branch Park, Liverpool, NY in my grandmothers back yard. What a performance! 1970’s ‘80’s and early 1990’s.
Saw Joe with the Grease Band in the back hall of a pub called The Toby Jug. Tolworth. in Surrey in 1968. Drove all the way from North London. An absolute blinder of a gig. Still got memories even now.

So it's
My thoughts exactly !
Lol😅 exactly,you nailed it
Think it was the cameras that had rotatable lenses like Cream’s farewell concert. Ruined classic perfomances imho
Cream una banda poco escuchada en Argentina yo fui uno de los pocos afortunados que escuchamos a esa banda❤@@jonathantumman8347

Hi Fatima💐💐
Cuando veía el programa los años maravillosos, este tema tuvo mucho éxito. La conocíamos como la principal canción de la serie y mucha gente la pedía en la radio.
Muy cierto
Excellent camera-work in this clip. Effectively capturing all the dynamic energy of the moment. Classic!
The videography lacked a lot. It was like a porn flick.
Joe was way more dynamic than this.
Is this the only clip from the BBC show "How It Is" ? Didn't know the show existed, but it ran for 33 episodes from 1968. It was superceded by "The Old Grey Whistle Test". It was advertised as: "A weekly programme by the young for the young in heart. It treats its audience as reasonably intelligent and aware people instead of as suburban suet puddings". There must be more clips than this, or were they wiped?
Except they never show the guitarist. Whose name is James Patrick Page.
The editing is too choppy for my liking. Fast cuts intended to generate visual excitement but zoomed in so close as to tire the eyes.
Joe Cocker is truly one of the greats. One of those who has been slept on for so long.
The Beatles sent joe a personal telegram congratulating him and said he did a better job
He said in an interview many years later that he threw the telegram away and really, really wished he had held onto it …
bigbifter, That gesture constitutes irrefutable evidence that The Beatles were the greatest band in history.
semireckless couldn’t agree more, the Beatles greatness will never be surpassed
I bet they didn't let him have the Royalties on it though?!?
