Product Description

All Music

Calling something "The Ultimate Collection" is fraught with problems -- usually of omission. Certainly over these two discs -- containing a total of 30 tracks -- there are plenty of fine moments from some of Joe Cocker's earliest material, such as "The Letter," "With a Little Help From My Friends," "Delta Lady," "She Came In Through the Bathroom Window," etc. Also present are virtually all of his later hits and some that should have been: "Up Where We Belong," "You Are So Beautiful," "Many Rivers to Cross," "Leave Your Hat On," etc. But there's just too much that isn't here. Where are "Bird on a Wire" and "Hitchcock Railway," for starters? Nonetheless, given the length of Cocker's career, this is not an unusual complaint. One thing that is unique about this set -- other than the fine sound -- is the sequencing that crisscrosses over the breadth and chronology of Cocker's discography. There are also a couple of rarities, which would have been OK to leave off in order to include some of the more classic titles. But this is quibbling; Cocker fans will have a good time with this, but it's a safe bet they won't be selling off their original albums/CDs to replace them with this. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

FINALLY 21 Jan 2004
Format:Audio CD
Finally, at long last, an anthology of Joe Cocker's best that has "meat" and a lot less "sugar" on it. JC at his best, surely the way he'd want to be pictured/listened to, not the recent "greatest hits" collections. This is the one you can really count on. Go and get it... NOW! You won't be disappointed.

Good Easy Listening 14 Mar 2006
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
I am not and never was a big Cocker follower but you can't deny that the guy knows how to sing a good song well. This is an enjoyable album full of variety. As a bonus, if you're an old fogey like me, you'll also recognise some of the memorable Cocker numbers from the 70s. This is a good value CD if you're looking for mature music.

Good old oldies 16 Dec 2011
Format:Audio CD
Heard this CD whilst visiting a friend in the south of France in October. We were having dinner and it was playing in the backgroud. I became transfixed with listening to the music rather than the conversation and decided I must have a copy! Brilliant.
