You are right! One of the best - but THW VERY BEST versiion ist the one with a hammond organ instead of the pianoforte, and a flute instead of the saxophone. Believe me.
Könnte man meinen... Er hat das Stück aber auch in einer anderen Instrumentalisierung gesungen: mit Querflöte statt Saxophon und (ausschließlich) Hammond Orgel statt Klavier. Und einem weniger flach klingenden Schlagzeug. Das ist DER BLUES ... Unerreicht!
I have been going back, and forth between versions of this amazing song and I was trying to figure out which version is the best..... I think I have a winner. This was amazing
Random, same here for years, listening to both, making comparisons, and maybe this one gets it. But for years I listened to the guitar solo on the other version and was amazed by how inspired it is.
Qué versión pasional y desgarrada hizo Joe de esta canción inmensa. La banda (todos sin excepción) me parecen magníficos. Gracias por compartir está belleza. Joe, te amo ❤
That is an incredible version. It just shows that it doesn't need to be similar to the one of Hugh Laurie or whoever. I love both versions! It's the soul they put into the performance!
It's a wonderful Version, to be sure. But the BEST VERSION EVER by Joe Cocker is the one with a hammond organ instead of the piano: ua-cam.com/video/ICtvvIj-xyA/v-deo.html This is THE blues… Close your eyes and stop doing anything else… Listen, how he sings "her" in "Let her go, let her go! - God bless her …" so weak of depression.... And the soli of the other Instruments (I'm talking like his voice is an Instrument, i just realize…. but it kind of is ...), especially the flute which goes double-voice at some point, but the others, too …. Gorgeous! So musical …. Uncomparable!
Van Morrison version simply classy & elegant as hell. Joe Cocker's, dirty & gutsy as hell Both God damn great versions. I hope Louie Armstrong would agree.

there are many version recorded by many different artist, all ok in their own way, but cockers version is the only version that is from the heart and soul. He sings as if it was him who lived it. This is why this version will be the only version which will be remembered forever. With all that said however, I have come across a piano version who has the same exact soul and feel. Check out on you tube, Henri Hebert, "Pianoman Soothes Busy Train Station". He is a concert pianist, If only we could have gotten him and Joe together on this, OMG!!!
The one and only version! I'll do a UA-cam demo of his cd album on my Dynaudio's C2 Speakers soon, have'nt got this album on vinyl regretably, anybody?
Lieber Joe, warum bist Du nur in Deinem späteren Leben so krank geworden? Du hattest eine liebende Frau gefunden und Du hast so gern im Garten gearbeitet. Ich glaube fest, dass Du jetzt glücklich bist!
Great voice but he completely cut out a giant chunk of the song An' give me six crap shooting pall bearers, Let a chorus girl sing me a song. Put a red hot jazz band at the top of my head So we can raise Hallelujah as we go along. Folks, now that you have heard my story, Say, boy, hand me over another shot of that booze; If anyone should ask you, Tell 'em I've got those St. James Infirmary blues

One of the best versions I’ve ever heard. Gritty, raw, and awesome!
That's how I feel about she came in through the bathroom window too.
You are right! One of the best - but THW VERY BEST versiion ist the one with a hammond organ instead of the pianoforte, and a flute instead of the saxophone.
Believe me.

Bons velhos tempos 😊 músicas excelentes e cantores magníficos. Quanta diferença para as porcarias pop de hoje em dia !😮
Cocker's version is my favorite. We'll miss you Joe.
This is a great version. Remember it from my youth. Fun to hear it again. Love Van Morrisons but this is bluesier.
Ann Amitt h
One of the best versions
Simply the best... Joe was one of my best singers...
Das mit Abstan d schönste Blues-Stück, das je gesunden und saxofoniert wurde
Könnte man meinen... Er hat das Stück aber auch in einer anderen Instrumentalisierung gesungen: mit Querflöte statt Saxophon und (ausschließlich) Hammond Orgel statt Klavier. Und einem weniger flach klingenden Schlagzeug. Das ist DER BLUES ... Unerreicht!
Cant belive hes never been inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of Fame.
Typical Joe Cocker treatment makes this essential listening. RIP Joe For your legions of fans you will always be the best.
In ALL the years I've been listening to this fantastic performer, I have never heard this!!! A great take on this blues song. I agree with zuzak4341
His Blues Songs Set Me Free !!!!!!!!!!
it´¨s a beatufull saxo ,this is the song from joe---the best
He is a great Cocker spaniel he was and will be until I die, my son Joe Cocker ❤
Saudade dos anos 70 quando eu ouvi essa música em 1975, venho procurando todos esses anos, Agora que encontrei
Joe, oh how many people your beautiful soul has made happy with your enchanting craft, bless ya on whatever cloud you're on. ❤
Best Version ever
I love this version of "St James Infirmary".Miss this essential singer so badly.
One of the best version, true feel,.,.,
I have been going back, and forth between versions of this amazing song and I was trying to figure out which version is the best..... I think I have a winner. This was amazing
have you listened to van Morrison performing this ?
I haven't.
Or the doors, they mix it with summertime and light my fire
Random, same here for years, listening to both, making comparisons, and maybe this one gets it. But for years I listened to the guitar solo on the other version and was amazed by how inspired it is.
the devil makes three version is also nice
Saint James Infirmary! A quintessência do blues! Cocker coloca a alma nas cordas vocais! Sonzão!
love this version; love this man..sad sad sad RIP
Qué versión pasional y desgarrada hizo Joe de esta canción inmensa. La banda (todos sin excepción) me parecen magníficos. Gracias por compartir está belleza. Joe, te amo ❤

Não existe versão mais mágica do que essa na voz de Joe Cocker.
me retrempe dans les annees 70s du bon vivre .
By far the best version
Of him performing it, that's for sure. Since then, and 50 years later, I discovered the original.
Hello Gail how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
My Favorite Singer …….EVER !!!!!!!!
This is amazing brilliant .
La mejor versión de este tema. Joe, un gran cantante y ser humano. Te amo desde hace más de 40 años y te amaré siempre.
Yo también. 50 años y nadie lo ha superado
The Best version ever by Joe Cocker.

Un buen blues para despedir a esta gran voz
Van Morrison version simply classy & elegant as hell.
Joe Cocker's, dirty & gutsy as hell
Both God damn great versions. I hope Louie Armstrong would agree.
Lorenzo Pasquarella check out cab calloway's 1930 version. there's (I feel ) a kind of insanity in cab's vocals that's unique.
@@georgeb.wolffsohn30 Cab's got the vote, no doubt.
For a stripped-down, intimate version, it has to be Dave van Ronk-----One man, one voice, one guitar, much feeling.
I'll have to check out Dave van Ronk's version. There's so many great covers of this timeless classic!
it can not be better than this ,, ever.
There is definitely no other version better than this one.
bruno venturino coughs* cab calloway caughs*
ridiculous, listen to Louis Armstrong...better, listen to Zephyr...much better
@@Circuit7Active R I G H T ! this version is not one of the best
If I may be so bold as to contradict you but I like Hugh Laurie's version better

Wow. It brings tears to my eyes... Dat is da blues. Thanks for uploading.
Versión hermosa ,logrando el objetivo del blues...atravesar el alma...
Un gran voz, la mejor del blues y el rock para mi. Donde te hayas ido seguro seguirás cantando,,,
¡¡¡Adiós querido Joe!!!
Great singer , for me he is best
Stupenda !!!! Bravo Maurizio !!!
Cetti Cetti
Grazie mille Sicily's sun ;-)
No other version gets near this one by Joe

Cocker Power
Guitar is very nice
R.I.P
R.I.P.. Cocker...
They Will not ever be musitions like you. Zvjezdan Radonjić
por favor, que versión, la mejor con Joe medido y excelente vientos y guitar.
Fenomenalna Kokerova verzija!
Superb
Marvellous. Martin Schmdit-Hahn with his warm clarinet would fit as well !!
What a Man..
Bobby Blue Bland does a nice rendition.
Bobby did the best
Two Steps From the Blues
❤
Wish this was on iTunes
Minha eterna saudade!
Blues da Joe, travolgente
Genial
Anyone hear the similiarities in "Shine on..."?
🎶♥️🎶
🌬🎶🎵🎵🎶💞
Respekt, Maurizio Farina!
The one and only version! I'll do a UA-cam demo of his cd album on my Dynaudio's C2 Speakers soon, have'nt got this album on vinyl regretably, anybody?
I bought this album when it came out. Still have it
La mejor versión de St James Infirmary. Además de su voz rocosa e increíble, qué grandes instrumentistas lo acompañaban. Te amo, Joe!! ❤
Damn! where did everybody go???
I like this version and Lou Rawls versions the best
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very nice version! Strange to find different and sometimes unlogical sequence of verses.
👍
Lieber Joe, warum bist Du nur in Deinem späteren Leben so krank geworden? Du hattest eine liebende Frau gefunden und Du hast so gern im Garten gearbeitet. Ich glaube fest, dass Du jetzt glücklich bist!
Bu şarkının bende ayrı bir yeri var.
Quién trae el requinto ahí?
Dedicated to ALL who passed away in 2020
I like Eric Burdon's version off the album "Every One of Us"
no way
The two best versions
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Non era in Mad Dogs and the Englishman?
Why the fuck isn't this in iTunes
because it's good
For me Cab Calloway's version from Max Fleischer's cartoon of Snow-white and the seven dwarfs is the best, at least considering the vocal part.
cab calloway made the best version.
NOBODY LIKE THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
I do and millions with me.
Cab Calloway is the best version
who's playing the horn ?
Who's playing what? Leon Russell on piano, I think..... Bobby Keys on sax....but who is on guitar? Fantastic whoever it is!
+Nigel's Inspirations Neil Hubbard on gtr, Chris Stainton on keys and Jim Horn on sax... bloody brilliant!!
Chris used to be with “ Spooky Tooth”
NeillHubbard
Nill Hubbard
Who was the guitarist and sax player?
Nill Hubard guitar for sure. Live La 1974
I can’t believe he’s English. Just goes to show…….
just love it much better than bobby blands
Komisch, auf diesem Foto siehst Du Kaya ähnlich.
Put it close to Armstrong's version.
Yeah I love this version but Louie's horn solo makes me melt
L’interprétation que je préfère avec celle de Rhiannon Giddens
Nice version,but i still like louis armstrong version.A song that always make my eyes wet...
The funny thing is that this song is not really a blues song...
Nobody even got close to the original.
lol this sounds like Shine On You Crazy Diamond and that guitarist is copping Gilmour licks like nobody's business
This was recorded before the Wish you were Here album, and the song was written long before either Cocker or Pink Floyd were on the scene
The guitarist is named Neil Hubbard...
That's the pentatonic scale for you, buddy
lol
Great vocals but the band is yer typical bash & crash rockers.
Great voice but he completely cut out a giant chunk of the song
An' give me six crap shooting pall bearers,
Let a chorus girl sing me a song.
Put a red hot jazz band at the top of my head
So we can raise Hallelujah as we go along.
Folks, now that you have heard my story,
Say, boy, hand me over another shot of that booze;
If anyone should ask you,
Tell 'em I've got those St. James Infirmary blues
