So it’s been brought to my attention that the background singers were stuck in traffic so the band had to make it work! Joe actually got by with alittle help from his friends! 🤣 (Dad Joke Approved) Killer performance! 🔥
He was a lovely person. I sold him books in the very early 90ies. Wonderfully kind, respectful, totally unassuming man. And then that voice, man.
That’s always refreshing to hear when someone this talented is also a great human being! Thanks for sharing!
Peace and love and no cell phones.. the best of days..
True!
Unfortunately the ladies were stuck in traffic and the band had to do what they could. Also, I was in grade 10 at the time in South Africa, but, we did get the pirated version before the end of 1969. Life changing to sy the least.
The show must go on!!! Joe really did get alittle help from his friends! (Dad Joke) Thanks for watching! 🤘🏻
@@setonhillstudios - Great Dad Joke, seriously !! :-)
The background singers got stuck and traffic so the regular band members had to fill in, epic
A couple people filled me in on that. It’s rock and roll so the show must go on! 🤘🏻
Ya’ll readin’ my mind or what? This is my favorite performance by him. The music flows through his whole body. I love that his movements were so “quirky”! I was fortunate to see him in person with Stevie Ray.
Wow!! What a show that must have been! This performance was killer and him and the band were bringing it! Unreal singer and performer!
Joe Cocker was an English singer known for his gritty, bluesy voice & dynamic stage performances that featured expressive body movements. He recorded a few Beatles' songs "With A Little Help From My Friends", "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window" & "Something". Other hit songs were "You Are So Beautiful", "Up Where We Belong" (a duet with Jennifer Warnes), "Delta Lady", "Darling Be Home Soon", "Cry Me A River", "Feelin' Alright", "The Letter" etc.
Love the grit in his voice! So much character! Appreciate the suggestions and you swinging by the channel! He was on 🔥 during this performance!
Steven I was laughing (hysterically) with you at the sound of the background singers! Your face was pure GOLD!!🤦♀️🙋♀️
I’ve seen Joe Cocker 2X live. He sings with SO much passion and heart. His background singers did not sound like chipmunks when I saw him. Lol.🙋♀️🐿️
Yea, from what I understand this was an anomaly and it’s not normally like that 🤣
@@setonhillstudios I’m so embarrassed!🤦♀️ Have I been calling you by the wrong name?? I’ve seen people refer to you as Charlie, so I did as well. I apologize if that is not your name. I just watched Dan Vasc’s Phantom/Music Of The Night and the commenter said “either Steven or I”…. so I’m thinking you’re Steven, not Charlie.🤔🤦♀️
@@user-gc1cp1xp5i 🤣 No need to be embarrassed! Yes I am Steven and the other half of Seton Hill Studios is Corey. We both have shaved heads so just remember tattoos vs no tattoos 🤣. It’s completely ok! We honestly don’t say our names too often so we should introduce ourselves more! Have a great day and we appreciate you watching! 😁
The show must go on......😂
Thank you for sharing
Indeed it must 🤣
This is a Beatles song, but Joe took it into blues-land. Yeah, the infamous background singers 🤣 Truth is, the REAL background singers got stuck on the road so the band did the best they could. Fortunately, Joe was his epic self. People were fascinated by his "flailing" hands, but if you pay attention, Joe is playing air guitar, and , occasionally, conducting. He could wring a song dry. "You Are So Beautiful" is another beauty from Joe.
That’s what someone else was saying! The show must go on though right! 🤘🏻 Joe and the band absolutely killed this performance! So much emotion and energy! Thanks for the suggestion and hanging out for a bit! 😁
Joe took us to church with this!
@@TheDivayenta No doubt! He was bringing that 🔥 for sure!
I loved Joe Cocker back in the sixties. I actually thought he had a neuromuscular disease because of the way the music moved through him, lol. My husband and I married in 1971, and he had grown up in England. He was actually the one who told me that Joe wasn't what we called "spastic" back in the day. I was a little disappointed when I found out the truth. No one could bring the blues to rock like Joe Cocker!
The Mad Dog and Englishman tour has a big lineup with him and the ladies singing on this nailed it
Appreciate the info! Gotta check that out! 🤘🏻
No ladies on this version, the singers were stuck in traffic, the Band none of them were singers had to fill in, hence the off key top notes.
I saw Joe at the 25th anniversary in Woodstock (Saugerties NY) in 1994. 10 am. It was like going to a church revival and everyone was on tinderhooks waiting for that scream.......
EPIC!!! He definitely brought that 🔥 with such a unique voice and so much soul! I get that was an amazing experience!
I was there in 1994 too! Wow what a crazy few days that was. I fondly remember it as ‘Mudstock’. But EVERY PERFORMER WAS AMAZING!🙋♀️🔥
I went to the Weeley popfestival in 1971, near Harwich in England. The Isle of Wigth popfestival was cancelled at the last minute, so most of that intended Wight audience and artists, already on their way, came to that modest festival at the small village of Weeley. At some point it was announced: "Ladies and gentlemen; ... Joe Cocker !!", and he was not even on the programme.
Just like at Woodstock, this festival became a lovely chaos. Also one day of rain. No facilities for thousands and thousands of people, no sufficient catering. And also, this was very early days in the popfestival phenomenon. Most everything was improvised, and incomparable with nowadays festivals. This was serious fun and survival, and great music.
Let me add, that it was, just like Woodstock, good vibes, great atmosphere, submerged in the great music of the time, and with likeminded people in so large numbers.
Being a long-heared hippy made you stand out in the normal streets, and here you were all together.
The village folks were lovely, trying to cater for us hapless youngsters, who now had become hungry. On our seeping bags we lay and listened, and slept, and listened for three days in total, and some more. It took me half an hour to navigate my way from the middle of the huge field before the stage, to the edge to take a piss in the bushes, where everyone was getting their relief. Walking over en between thousands of people laying on or in their sleeping bags, drinking, smoking, talking, making love, and sleeping. This was the freedom we longed for, and wished for everybody.
Great times, and I can only hope they will come back for all coming generations.
Fun fact: Weeley village usually organised a yearly donkey race, but one guy had heard about that new thing 'popfestival'. So for that year they organised that.
The village did not know what was coming to them, and they will always remember :-)
Wow, what a cool memory!
I didn’t go but I was 11 at the time. We did live about 50 miles south of Bethel in 69.
Thanks for sharing! Cool that you lived in the same area at the time though. I bet it was a fun time for the community!
Well said...About musicians and singers getting 'caught' in it. It is so very true & very real. He stated at one time that he uses his body as an instrument, as he does not really play one. Perfection! And, I love his boots!
So awesome!
Back then we called Joe Cocker The King of Spastic Rock. If you want some fun check out John Belushi's impression of him on SNL, including one number where the two of them perform together.
What a great description! He definitely had that music flowing through him! I bet that’s hilarious! Gotta check it out! Thanks!
@@setonhillstudios Jo had Childhood Polio many didn't recover thus his movements
@@lesleycollis7520 Wow! Thanks for sharing! I think his movements definitely gave a unique performance! Loved it!
I had a coworker that went to Woodstock. He said it was an amazing experience. Also he said it was miserable.
He would not describe it as particularly fun.
Probably a fair assessment! I bet the musical experience was life changing but it’s gotta be tough out there in the heat etc. Probably exhausting! Thanks for sharing!
@@setonhillstudios it rained mostly.
@@Stephen-nd1sx Ughhh Even worse! 😬
I Smoked a Joint with Joe Cocker 😎 Nice guy 🎵🎶
Oh snap!
Grease band not known for vocals Joe is unfazed and killed it
💯 Joe and the band brought that 🔥
I was there. I got grounded because of the traffic i got home late. ( was supposed to be staying at a friend's house that weekend). Eventually by parents understand and forgave me. 😂😂😂😂
🤣 what a great memory I’m sure!
I heard his backup singers didn't make it on time so the band had to fill in
Yeah that’s what a few other people were saying! Joe brought it on this performance! Put his entire soul into it!
One of the best ever live performances. Another is Dire Straits performance of Sultans of Swing at their Alchemy concert. Find it on You Tube
That was absolutely EPIC! We actually covered that and “Telegraph Road” on the channel already. Go to our home page and you can find it under the playlist “Bands and Groups.”
No backup ladies on this version, the singers were stuck in traffic, the Band (none of them were singers) had to fill in, hence the off key top notes.
Yeah that’s what a few other people were saying. The show must go on right! Either way, Joe and the band brought that 🔥
the most epic performance of all time.
So good!
After hearing this. Lennon and McCartney, when Joe stopped at EMI to visit in 69, pleaded with him to continue to choose Beatle songs to cover. He obliged with one more, SHE CAME IN THROUGH THE BATHROOM WINDOW>
Oh wow! What an honor for them to ask Joe to do that! I can see why though, his take on this was phenomenal!
There was supposed to be professional back ground singers, but their transportation couldn't get thru the the woodstock mess, so these guys had to improvise with the backing vocals
Gotcha, that makes a lot more sense then 🤣
His lady back up group couldnt get there.. so the guys had to quickly do the backing
That’s what a few other people were saying too! Thanks so much for sharing!
Some of the names at this concert were last minute, like Joe, plus EVERYONE IS ON ACID.......quality .......or feel........., they went with feel.
Oh I guarantee it! 🤣 I think it was quality though! I mean the performance was unbelievable! The band was killing it and that improv they did at the end was 🔥
😂😂😂 I lost it with the cringing. 😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣
Joe was known for his live performances! To bad his background singers were stuck in traffic, cuz the band members sounded terrible! But when i watch Joe perform i say to myself "his whole body is gonna be sore the next day" 😁
He definitely outs his all into it!
The song starts: What would you do if I sang out of tune. I love the outta tune backup. This is my favorite version of the song.
Haha that’s true, we weren’t ready!
Knowing it's from the Woodstock festival I'd have to guess those background singers are probably high as a freaking kite! LMAO LOTS of acid going around and pot and who knows what else. :D LOL
🤣😂🤣
they sold 14000 tickets to the festival, 450,000 people showed up, NO parking, you couldn't get within 40 miles of the site, hence the "backup" singers.
Gotcha, that’s insane!
As others have already said the traffic was so bad that the female back up singers couldn't get to the gig, so the band members had to make do as best they could.
Up Where We Belong
Appreciate the suggestion and thanks for swinging by! 🤘🏻
This duet is not just good - it is transcendentally beautiful !!!
The background singers are NOT singing off key, they just don't sound good.
this is a cover of a Beatles' song
In the recording studio, he had female backing singers, who were not here so the band tried to fill in as a choir of girls. Look past it dude.
Oh I definitely looked past it but it took me off guard. 🤣 I’ve been in live situations where you just gotta roll with it! That’s rock and roll! 🤘🏻
Nicely played Brother 👍 I just came across your channel and appreciate it! Please check out some Joe, from later on in his career. "When the night comes" would be a great place to start. And REAL background vocalist on the track😂 Spread the love 🐶😎🇺🇸
Awesome! Glad to have ya! Will definitely check it out! He brought the 🔥 on this performance for sure! Have a great one!
His “You are So Beautiful” is heart bending. Love Joe and thanks for a super reaction.
@@joanholman3105 Thank you for watching! Definitely have to check that one out! Thanks! 😄
On the record and the concert Mad Dogs and English men he had his women backing group.. but they couldn't get there so the guys in the group sang the backing
That’s what I keep hearing. The show must go on!
Its live dude
Lovin your vids. Looks like you got some goodies for me to check out. Guess I'm goona have to subscribe!! 👍
Thanks so much, glad you’re enjoying the videos!
This is the greatest cover for any Lennon/McCartney song…..
So good!
I always cringe a little when people react to this particular version only because his PROFESSIONAL back up singers were stuck in traffic and the boys trying to fill in....well they don't live up to the studio version let's just say. Do more Joe Cocker / Leon Russell
They made due with that they had! More to come for sure and thanks for stopping by the channel! 🤘🏻
The background singer got held back in traffic...but it's the 60s.. we were not up tight it was still cool to us....our generation wasn't up tight....get a grip..lol
I actually loved the performance! The background singers were more just a funny thing to me. Joe and the band were on 🔥
Check out Santana, Ten Years After from Woodstock. Please
Sweet, thanks for the suggestion!
React to Janis Joplin summer time real grit..raspy voice
Appreciate the suggestion! Thanks for stopping by! 😁
Geeze, cut the Grease Band some slack; the girl singers couldn't get there so the guys did the best they could. 'Found I was paying as much attention to the Band and their input as to Joe. IMO this is the best version of the song, and one of the best videos of the Century.
Just having alittle laugh! 🤣 I get it, this show must go on! Definitely a killer performance by everyone! Have a great one!
His back up singers didn’t show. Some grabbed a girl walking by. Cara. I am subscribed now but none, to them, is user.
I guess the show must go on right! Either way they brought that 🔥🔥 Thanks for hanging out!
You are very quick on criticizing a legendary live performance. Get a life !!
🤣😂 Criticizing? I literally said the performance was phenomenal, Joe Cocker sounded amazing, and the band was on point! Surely one slight criticism about the background vocals aren’t what you’re referring to? ✌🏻
What a rude comment! He wasn’t criticizing anything. He clearly loved Joe Cocker’s performance. Anybody with ears was cracking up at sound of the back up vocals. They were clearly not his usual backup singers but doing their best, I’m sure…. but c’mon! They were hysterical!
