1.0 out of 5 stars Bad, Bad, Sound Quality, November 13, 2001
This review is from: Standing Here (Audio CD)
This was a live concert recorded in the 1980's, and the sound quality is just awful. It sounds like someone took the trebel knob and turned it all the way to the left; like Joe is singing in a barrel. It's almost impossible to make out any of the lyrics.

Joe Cocker has released some good live albums (notably 1990's "Joe Cocker Live"), but this is not one of them. Save your money.

2.0 out of 5 stars Joe sounds better elswhere!, October 20, 2001

(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Standing Here (Audio CD)
I would be willing to bet Joe Cocker had no say in the release of "Standing Here", a live 2 cd set recorded in May of 1981. The recording finds Joe Cocker at a stage in his career when he was still getting back on his feet from years of abuse. His voice is weak and the band is surely not as good as his late 80's and 90's Chris Stainton bands. The cd has most of his classics and some nice mid-seventies album tracks but they lack the power of his best live offerings. Listen to his "Maddogs and Englishmen" or his "Joe Cocker Live" cd's and compare it to this release and you will see what I mean. I am sure some fan is going to be upset with this review but if you are truly a big Joe Cocker fan like myself, you know this does not come close to his best live recordings. I would not be shocked if this cd went out of print fairly quickly. Thank goodness Joe is healthy again and singing better than ever, but this release should be avoided.

2.0 out of 5 stars One of the few chances to hear the late, great B.J. Wilson, July 25, 2008
This review is from: Standing Here (Audio CD)
Although I'm a big Joe Cocker fan, I find this live set severely lacking. However as big fan of Procol Harum, I'm thrilled to be able to hear one the great rock drummers play live.
