We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!
Joe Cocker, a true rock 'n' roll original, died today at the age of 70. Here's a clip from the legendary "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" tour in 1970, with Joe, aided by the great Leon Russell on piano, doing a stonking version of "The Letter." Enjoy!

A legend indeed. I also remember him for "High With a Little Help From my Friends." It's a tremendous loss. He had such a great range with his voice and was such a unique talent.
