This mix makes it almost sound like an entirely different song that what I'm used to hearing.

[SeanElGatoTelevision]

@hattree: ...especially since this is a rehersal take that A&M rushed out as a single.

[hattree]

@SeanElGatoTelevision That explains it. It's totally different than the stereo versions out there that were recorded from a live performance.

One of the very few performer's with cerebreal palsy. He is a true inspiration to me as I was also born with cerebrreal palsy.

[stalkingwolf1954]

cocker ,the legend, was about to embark his rock star years, which nearly killed him and made many of these muscians stars also, he put out so much energy in 2 months of mad dog tour that it nearlly cost him his life

[reggie44]

Note that although this is the band that toured with Joe on "Mad Dogs and Englishmen", there's no crowd noise as on the album cut; from my best info, this was recorded in rehearsal and rush-released.

Among the backup singers was a young Rita Coolidge, who had some chart success as a solo artist with "All Time High" and a cover of Jackie Wilson's "Higher And Higher". Hmm, I'm sensing a pattern here...

[00ABBITT00]

Brilliant.

[oceanbound222]

I love the urgency in his voice
