Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

This is just one of three Bryan Adams songs recorded by the great Sheffield soul man over several years. Two of them, like so many Adams covers, were co-writes with Jim Vallance.

Wonder if some ambitious record exec has ever licensed an entire collection of diverse Adams-Vallance tunes (some of them with additional collaborators) into a K-Tel type sampler? In addition to Cocker it could include a wide swath of artists such as Rod Stewart, Elkie Brooks, Loverboy, Prism....

What a team. So glad they patched up their differences and began working together after several years apart.
