Bbc news just reported death of Joe Cocker, 70, the guy who took Dennis's You Are so Beautiful to number 5 on the Billboard chart in 1975.

Yesterday one of  Germany's most successful entertainers since the 60s died, Udo Jürgens. And now this? I can't believe it

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Whatever the actual story of the song, you sang it beautifully.

I'm assuming he's thanking Joe Cocker for "You are so beautiful" which Dennis did live on stage..

He took a song written in part by Dennis, sang it with heart and soul. Dennis showed a lot of class by not making a big deal about the writing of it IMO.

Just a little thank you thread to another great we have just lost, with a BB link. Admin delete if so be it.

Stop trolling, please. Your bitchering posts have become a nuisance.

His version of With A Little Help From My Friends will always be the definitive version for me. Major loss, he was an incredible singer. R.I.P.

Couldn't agree more.

And R.I.P. Joe Cocker, another great one gone. In this month, first Bobby Keys, then Ian McLagan and now Cocker. Everyone has to go sometime, but doesn't make it any less sad.

Suspect the prob is that the earlier thread was moved already to somewhere called General Music Discussions, a place I at least never venture:
