I really enjoyed this album and it makes one wonder why it took so long for the "Live at Woodstock" series to emerge - maybe copyright issues, who knows. Joe Cocker rose to fame in the late 60s in part, at least, on the back of his performance at the Woodstock festival of August 1969. Until this album only the track "With a little help from my friends", of the Woodstock set, was released (on the first Woodstock album). Those who know, and like, that track will not be disappointed with this album. For those that don't know Cocker, his stlye is that of an extravagant front man covering songs of the time in an idiosyncratically soulful style. This set is performed by a band who know what they are doing and are doing it well. It is a tight, well performed set of songs mostly from Cocker's first album. This incarnation of the Grease Band is really good (really, really good). Like many "overnight" sucesses, that success is founded on years of hard slog. This performance catches a glimpse of Joe Cocker and his band at the top of their game and before drugs, fame and rock and roll have taken their toll. Excellent.
