I love Joe Cocker's interpretation of this song written by Steve Winwood and Will Jennings. He has taken his vocals down a notch and his voice is smoother with a nice swing added to it, along with the soul sound that is in all of his songs. The sax adds richness and edge. It highlights to me once again what a great singer Joe Cocker was and one of the best ever. Sorry he left us but his music lives on and I have great memories. RIP Joe.

This is my first time hearing this rendition of this song. It's much better than what I had in mind.

Just off to bed....but simply had to add another Joe Cocker absolute favourite before I go. He will be genuinely missed by all those who loved his voice,his music,his songs. In the ensuing weeks and months he will fade a little in the news but in the memories of those who simply adored him he will never fade in any way whatsoever. He may have left us but he will still be Talking Back To The Night and letting us all know he was too special to have ever really gone. Lovely,unique,unassuming Joe Cocker with his endearing personality in how he gave us his songs.

Joe Cocker had the ability that few others possessed of being able to take a song written by another artist and making it his own. Another singer overlooked by the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame...RIP .

The vocals are unusually subdued for Ol' Joe. I'd say Steve's version is better but this is a close second. His backup is excellent.

This version actually came out a few months before Winwood's, and I actually heard it a lot on an Albany radio station. This version is leaner and less synthesized than Steve's with real bass and lead guitar. And, of course, Joe's voice. I put this one, Steve's original and the 1987 remix hit in my Winwood playlist. Thanks for the upload!

@marksaunders3047 8 жыл бұрын

+Dario Pendrive and Devin Roberts, trfesok is correct in saying that Joe Cocker's version came out before Steve Winwoods. Cocker got the jump on Winwood by releasing his version of Talking Back To The Night, which incidentally was written by Steve Winwood and his writing partner Will Jennings in May 1982, off the album Sheffield Steel. Winwood release his version in September 1982 from the album off the same name but was a commercial flop. Winwood re-released the single in 1988, from the Chronicles album but as a remix version which proceeded to peak number 9 on the billboard singles chart.

Never heard this, but a long time fan of Winwood's song......this does not suck. It is different, but with the same vibe, and that is OK with me.

@joeclements5228 7 жыл бұрын

It is the more insistent drum beat that is different from Winwood's version. Joe was a drinking friend of mine in the old days and he turned me on to Traffic, hence Winwood, the finest UK singer, songwriter, multi instrument musician of my era.
