This kind of thing could never happen today.

Cant believe Leon isnt listed on this video...he put Mad Dogs And Englishmen together! Hell of a talent, Hell of a show!!! RIP Leon...RIPJoe You are greatly missed Ty for sharing your music and talent with us...

No matter how good an original was, once Joe Cocker did it he owned it.

Just thinking @71 yrs there has been 2 people who are able to envoke in my soul sheer unbridled joy & excited pleasure- Joe Cocker is the #1. Something in the way he sings (ha, slight pun) consistently brings unrivaled blissful delight.

The man could do beetles and rolling stones to perfection r.i.p. joe cocker xx

This is a precious video of Joe Cocker and Leon Russell.....their contribution to Rock n Roll was massive to the tenth power.....

The 70s, when it didn’t cost a mortgage to see the best bands in the world.

So glad this was captured on film...The music was amazing, the musicians top notch, and Leon's arrangements were perfect. Captures the 70's vibe so well.

Keltner and Gordon at one stage.. Amazing drummers.

those days were absolutely wild, music everywhere all the time, you would never forget it.

it breaks my heart... the knowing this will never happen again... rip joe cocker and rip leon russel... that was just magic.... more words are useless...

Joe Cool..never be another like him..Leon was a cool breeze that was always a welcome sight.

Beyond fabulous entirely … a time past … Keltner and Gordon together… added to our younger lives joyously x

Brilliant...raw rock n roll at its best.

Brutally classic gutbucket rock and roll. Leon was a stone genius bringing this together. I'd watch this until I'm pushing up daisys. This.. or Russell's performance at the Bangladesh shows. Absolutely timeless.

And one of the best. I was lucky enough to see the tour live, but all the off stage craziness was fantastic!

They were a fun loving group. Mad dogs and Englishmen. Awesome Joe Cocker. R.I.P.

Mad dogs and Englishman ... Joe and Leon and friends ....I love it....

SO many greats on that stage; Claudia Lennear at her peak

Leon is the coolest cat to ever fill a pair of boots 😂☺👍

A spectacular version by a spectacular artist! RIP Joe.

Always a musical experience at higher levels !! Thanks Joe Cocker wherever you are. !Viva México!

I love this so much, got totally hooked on the album years ago. RIP the amazing Joe Cocker

Wow. Cant even imagine that energy live. I would have been climbing the walls

Always love when Miss Emily dances across the stage and gets a kiss from Leon. Priceless!

I have this tour video on DVD. Amazing stuff. Makes today's music sound like a plate of sh!t.

I grew up in the wrong generation. Love hearing stories about these days from my dad.

The World Misses Both Joe / Leon There Must Be A BIG Party Some Where Up There !!! 9 / 11 / 18

now that's what music is all about, love it

Leon was the shit! RIP both of these legends

What a great concert this was, one of my favorites

I saw this movie at the drive-in four times soooo high😊

Jim Keltner keeping them all together ! Great drummer

Holy sh*t this ROCKS! So much!!

now thats a concert, wow!!

Pamela Poland wearing Leon's top hat-great singer!

*WHAT PRESENCE* Leon had. He's literally *Rock and Roll on two feet*

100% Rock n' Roll . Love it !!!

They were a one of kind performance band. Leon had a vision.

Was there at Fillmore East in 1970 I think it was, age 14 - amazed my parents let me go! They were so good and so fun.

Jim Gordon and Jim Keltner on drums...incredible!!

what a crazy wild time, people and the music! omg the music!!! soooooo crazy and good!

I think there's a few "musicians" today that could learn A LOT from this. RIP Joe & Leon.

What a great movie this was. Probably my favorite music movie ever.

Love sweet Emily and and Leon strutting their stuff, one of my favs

Wish I was a background singer back then

What a band..... Carl Radle and Jim Gordon went on to play with Clapton on the Layla record.....

this is so f*cking good!!!!!

No matter how many people were on that stage when Joe Cocker step up to the mic he took command of the whole show.

Makes me think of my mom, cooking in the kitchen and wiggling at the same time. She reminds me of Miss Emily.

la joie de vivre cette époque ✌✌❤❤🎼🎼🎸🎸

If you like this, you might want to check out the new concert/documentary movie “Learning to Live Together: The Return of Mad Dogs and Englishmen”. Shortly before his passing, Leon reunited with surviving members of the Mad Dogs & Englishmen (Rita Coolidge, Jim Keltner, Claudia Lennear, Chris Stainton,, Bobby Torres, others) and augmented by Chris Robinson (Black Crows), The Tedeschi Trucks Band, and Dave Mason for a concert to recreate the music of the original touring group. It’s pretty damn amazing. Seek it out.

One of the craziest rock movies i've ever seen.

Went to tons of concerts back in the late sixties and seventies but never got to see the Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour. Still waiting for someone to invent that time machine.

I saw them in 1968 at the Capital in Port Chester, New York it was the Best Show I had ever seen to this day.

He’s the man!

Drove around the USA and Canada in 1971 with a VW and tent and was driving from Washington , DC up to New York . We could not find anywhere cheap to camp so went to an all night drive in movie and this was on . Must have seen it about three times in between trying to get some sleep , a memorable night .

Yup, saw this tour & it was incredible!! Went with all my troupe of friends, we were so young and passionate and it was the best PA I’d heard, the sound was amazing everywhere in the Auditorium, but the show was even better. Crazy packed stage, with anything and everyone up there, Rita Coolidge complained about all the extras who got in the way in her memoir, but I was 14 & thought it was fabulous!

Joe Cocker just made sound Mick Jagger sound like a choir boy! He and Leon just turned the song in to a nuclear explosion.

Dropped acid and went to see the movie in Venice, CA.... on Lincoln Blvd? Can't remember, but it definitely got me HIGHER.

So cool that Rita Coolidge is part of the back up!

Mad Dogs & Englishmen Joe, Leon all fantastics!! 🤗🤗❤️🌹👏👏👏

60's and 70's were rockin..Joe Cocker the legend of rock n roll ..best vocalist on a stage..great performance..and band

Buena joe cocker saludos desde Costa Rica pura vida.

Amazing

Leon is fkn FINE!Rip Joe & Leon

great Band !!

Loving Leon Russell atm!... way he plays with the tempo here

Raw energy!!

Com certeza essa obra prima encontra-se entre os 10 maiores álbuns já produzidos. Estamos falando de gênios da música universal.

Pupils like saucepans across the stage, "band members" experiencing different realities and time zones across multiple planes of existence yet somehow still in perfect musical synchronicity with one another; you can practically taste the coke and LSD on the back of your palette just in watching this clip. Phenomenal performance from an amazing film, one of the most raw representations of pure 70s free love and drugs excess you'll ever experience.

STILL the Very BEST 💓💓💓

Leon gave Sweet Emily a kiss. 😃❤️

otro nivel de musica ¡¡¡

RIP Jim Gordon

Ao ver este vídeo me fez voltar a minha juventude aos meus 17.18.19 anos Quando os amigos se reuniam na casa de outro amigo para uma sessão se rock onde rodava discos de Joe Cocker,Janis Joplin,Jimmy Hendricks,Rollin g Stones e outros mais regado a muita cerveja e churrasco acompanhados de lindas garotas .!! Meu Deus como era Boa a nossa vida pena que o tempo passa. Hoje estou com 67 anos . Mas curti a vida e nunca esqueço.

@ThePhantomRailroads You've got that right! No matter how they looked, the choir was a well rehearsed, talented bunch of singers.

Como me hubiese gustado estar en ese concierto !!!

I saw that one-of-a-kind tour! 1970 at Fillmore West in San Francisco. A stage filled with brilliant musicians and a room with so much energy I'm surprised it didn't explode. What a memory!

Leon Russell !!! He was the band director

hola saludos muy buena me gusta mucho esta musica soy un marino que e visitado muchos paises de europa asia y america

Thats when music was music Not the crap we hear today JMO

Goddamn! What a performance!

My favourite rock album.

Claudia Lennear （AKA　the Movie "20 Feet from the Stardom"） appears in this Film !

Yes back in the days when music was music.Cocker, Russell and so many other greats Nobody does real music today except the Stones of course

great twin drummer Jim Gordon and Jim Keltner

Life is precious.. There’s no such thing as an ordinary day, Enjoy it to the full… ✅

Absolutely rígth Mr. Walter

as good as it ever got--period.

Amazing!!

This is what I call fun

GOAT

The very first album I ever bought

Rita Coolidge baby.

Funny, Leon had a pretty steady face with only small expression until his wife comes over dancing with a tambourine and gives him a kiss. Then he has a quick big smile. Haha. 💜🎵

DIG LEON'S STATE OF THE ART TOP HAT.SO DISTINGUISHED, TOO.

Спасибо Джо, Льву и команде!

ES UNA FIESTA EN EL ESCENARIO..

Loved this double album and the film. I thought Leon was so sexy! I was 19 when this came out. Wish I could have seen them live.
