Next one of my all time favourite eccentric English rockers. Known for his gritty, bluesy voice and dynamic stage performances that featured expressive body movements. Following his death in December 2014, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, were among those who paid tribute to the singer, while Cocker's agent, Barrie Marshall, said that Cocker was "without doubt the greatest rock/soul singer ever to come out of Britain".
This album from 1989 is his twelfth studio album from twenty two studio albums spanning six decades. The album features the well know "When the Nigh Comes" the song is also notable because it was written by Bryan Adams, Jim Vallance and Diane Warren. In addition, the former plays rhythm guitar on the song. Other notable songs on the album include a cover of "One Night" (here as "One Night of Sin"), a #1 hit by Elvis Presley from 1958, and "I'm Your Man" by Leonard Cohen. The album also features "Another Mind Gone", which was the first album track in thirteen years to be co-written by Cocker.
Track listing:
1. When The Night Comes
2. I Will Live For You
3. I've Got To Use My Imagination
4. Letting Go
5. Just To Keep From Drowning
6. Unforgiven (Bonus Track)

Lastly, my morning session ends with vinyl and this original release pressing from 1984, this was the second (and final) "reunion" album and their eleventh studio album.
The album is highly regarded for its excellent sound as it was recorded Live at A&M Records "Charlie Chaplin" Soundstage Hollywood California and engineered by Alan Sides It is an early digital recording (dating from December 1982) and was the first Spirit album to be released on CD, appearing in that format from Mercury Records in West Germany in 1984 (consequently, it is also one of the best sounding early CD releases from a rock band), the original CD is in fact incredibly rare !

A couple of good ones Mark.
Agreed, Cocker had a superb voice and Spirit are a group that should be more recognition.
