Joe Cocker - Cry Me A River

Probably the best cover of the song in my opinion.

Notice Leon Russell on Piano. My understanding is he was the one who hired and organized Cocker's backup band.

I can't imagine what one that large would cost these days. Looks like everyone performing is having fun.

Leon set the whole thing up. And if memory serves…. Joe came home from a massive tour with $800?? But as a retired musician? Fucking priceless! Shit, I’d pay to be on a tour with that kind of band. You kidding me?
