of his recent discs - one of the best!

Again, it creates Joe Cocker foreign pieces can again sound so that the original sounds like a nachzieher his songs.
concretely he succeeds here in John Hiatt's "have a little faith in me".
the original version is a piece, only supported by the piano + the voice of John Hiatt.
Here it is with guitar, bass, drums and keyboards - and as little as I could imagine this version with Joe Cocker, in Combination with the instrumentation, so much "work" the song with him.
continue to the former single hit "Summer in the City", plus the sad "standing knee deep in a Deep River".
and do not forget, my favorite song of the disc: "The Simple Things", also today still like + often played on the radio.
a song with a simple message (out of sheer want, and who want, not the little important things to lose sight of) but he rueberbringt without false pathos.
the work here is accustomed to well-produced, the sound of a casting. the song quality, voice, musician fits all and has no songs which one skips.
not a masterpiece, but considerably more than average.
for all fans cocker + those who want to be ---> highly recommended as timeless work.
