Brings back memories of Rex Hunt saying 'he as higher than Joe Cocker'! Taking that into consideration, 70 is not a bad knock at all. RIP Joe.

RIP Joe, the lad from Sheffield.

He certainly lived the full sex, drugs and rock 'n roll lifestyle in his hey day.

Was a big fan.

Ps. I heard he had to cut down a bit on the rock 'n roll in later years.

Somehow, I think that between 70-80 is a good innings.  If you go longer you start to have such a reduced impact on life the universe and everything and seem to be doggged by illness unless you are one of the fortunate ones.

No doubt there's a minion somewhere in AFL House who is scratching his name off the AFL's list of septuagenarian rockers who are in the running for next year's GF.

A snort or two of cocaine and they're as good as 20 again  :))

She came in through the bathroom window . . .

I saw the Guvnor at his best at Festival Hall at some point during the 1970s  ;)

70 is far too young but lung cancer doesn't let go. RIP Joe
