Joe Cocker, the British gritty-voiced soul and blues singer, best remembered for his covers of popular hits, especially Beatles song such as "With A Little Bit of Help From My Friends," passed away from lung cancer at Crawford, Colorado at age 70.
Mr. Cocker had a hit recording in 1975 with "You Are So Beautiful," which peaked at #5 in Billboard's Pop chart.
Joe's duet with Jennifer Warnes on "Up Where You Belong", from the film "An Officer and a Gentleman," was his only chart topper and netted him his only Grammy award.
