Joe Cocker’s Blues Band
Here’s something really cool from LP cover lover, Anthony Hulme: Hi Matthew, This is reportedly the earliest recording by the late Joe Cocker. Joe came from Sheffield, England and Sheffield University produced this EP of local bands in 1967 during University Rag Week in order to raise funds for local charities. The tracks on the EP were recorded at ‘The Mojo’ a Sheffield nightclub founded by Pete Stringfellow. (He of ‘Stringfellows’, London fame). The rest is history.

Joe Cocker recorded a cover of the Beatles’ song “I’ll Cry Instead” in 1964. Thanks for uploading this, though. I had no idea that this existed.
