Joe Cocker live in Sheffield 1963

Recommended Posts

I remember see Dave and the original Cruisers at the Frecheville Co-op, I'm not sure but think that it may have been before Club 60 opened.

 

can remember going to watch groups above the coop at frecheville and the old scout hut on lindley lane

I was told that Joe once owned a big American car while living in Sheffield ,although I have read his Autobiography by Sheffield author J.P. Bean the book makes no metion of this.

Perhaps another urban myth .

As an after thought I remember seeing Joe at the Lyceum in the early 80's there was no seats in the Auditorium as the Theatre was in the process of being tidied up at that time so every one was crammed in front of the stage.

Joe as usual brought the house down.

I think most of them where from Beighton but seem to remember Roy Barber lived in Frecheville but I don't think it was on the Jermyn Estate, but could be wrong.

Well that is solved then! although I do know that Joe had a new Rover and a Daimler parked alongside the old Cortina's and Morris Minors parked on Tasker Road when he first came back from America.

I remember Joe coming to collect his then girlfriend Eileen W****** from the NCB offices at Rutland Park. That would've been 1967. Not sure what car he had then as I never saw it.
