        According to Rick Wakeman this evening, he was very modest but great British soul singer,
        RIP Joe,

          So, so sad, I can't believe it. If anyone needs reminding of his greatness, here it is...


          For me, the greatest vocal performance of all time...do take the time to watch it all

            3 score years and 10; who can ask for more: eternal peace; knowing you reached out with your music and brought a parallel sense of peace to those who truly "listened"! God Bless xxMxx

                Yep, I could listen to him all day and my feet and fingers would tap and I would feel good.......not many artists can do that to me these days. Another unique musician that will be missed.

                  Is this edible or would it require a trip to A&E if eaten!
