@bluzebaby Well did what I could, I dont think there visuals that can describe or match as you said the geniuses of the lyrics or Joe's vocals, which are a beauty!

Look, I'm just a fan, like everyone else, I don't know squat, OK?. But, IF, I say IF, that's Page @ 1:40 to 1:48 or so - and I THINK I recognize his chops - the A flat @1:43 is pure genius. You can't teach it, you can't learn it. A BIG surprise for me, not naturally a big Page fan - I always felt Page confused quantity with quality - but this is in-freakin'-credible! What an interpretive genius Cocker is, shows through here. Page is a cog. Joe's the wheel! Magnificent.

Simply an awesome song righteously sung by Joe C and fantastic chorus of backup singers! And this song was composed, written in 1-9-2-6... almost a hundred years ago. Great music does not die. good work, Joe! thanks for posting

I had forgotten about this one. One thing that makes it great is the arrangement with the background singers.

Thanks for posting it. I try to relive my youth daily! This helps!

Easily the definitive version of this song. Joe seemed to make everything uniquely his. One wonders where all the great British rock talent of his type has gone. Was it all confined to one blessed generation?
