JOE COCKER The Authorised Biography (2003 UK 248-page hardback book by J.P. Bean with Foreword by Joe Cocker. Joe has talked to the biographer with an honesty rare in rock stars - about his heroin addiction, alcoholism, the arrests that got him thrown in jail, the demons that haunted him for years. But most of all this is an uplifting story of an ordinary man who lit up America like a beacon in the night, was written off as a shambolic wreck and then - against the odds - climbed back to become an even bigger star than he was first time around. Includes eight pages of glossy black & white photographs, plus picture dust jacket)
