The Full Story
In the late 1960s, there were few rock stars bigger than Joe Cocker, who exploded onto the rock music scene at Woodstock with his frenzied performance of The Beatles’ “I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends”. Hoping to capitalize on the magic of Joe’s performance at Woodstock, Cocker’s record label asked veteran studio musician Leon Russell to assemble a band of LA’s top session players for a tour and live album.
Known as “Mad Dogs & Englishmen”, the tour became one of the great happenings in the history of rock music, catapulting Joe Cocker and Leon Russell to the pinnacle of rock and roll stature.
“Mad Dogs & Southerners: A Tribute to Joe Cocker & Friends” is Atlanta’s tribute to these two masterful musicians and to the beautifully decadent state of rock and roll in the early 1970s.
