Search - Joe Cocker :: Sheffield Steel

An Under-Appreciated Classic

"One of Joe Cocker's best and most under-appreciated works. None of the treacle that comes up in his later work, and some smokin' covers - exactly what Cocker does best. As another reviewer noted, his cover of Dylan's "Seven Days" alone is worth the price of admission, but his work on "Many Rivers to Cross" is excellent also. While I am a fan of Steve Winwood, Cocker's cover of "Talking back to the Night" overwhelms Winwood's original. Rest of the album more than carries its weight - nothing sinks to the level of filler that unfortunately appears on many of Cocker's albums."

Underrated

"This release never got the attention it deserved. But if you like Cocker, you will really like this one. Classic voice with great back up band and vocals. The song " seven days' is worth the price alone. If you missed out on this Cocker release, pick it up!!"
