Sure, he's mellowed some over the years. He'd probably have been dead a long time ago if he didn't. Sure he's singing songs with French titles ("N'oubliez Jamais") amid lush string and horn arrangements. But he's still Joe Cocker, damn it. He still knows how to pick a cover tune, too. This time around it's not "With A Little Help From My Friends" or "The Letter" that he recasts into a new, soulful image, but Bob Marley's "Could You Be Loved" and Squeeze's "Loving You Tonight," which seem tailor-made for the Cocker treatment. He's backed on ACROSS FROM MIDNIGHT by an impressive set of studio stalwarts as well, including longtime piano man Chris Stainton and Uberdrummer Kenny Aronoff.
