We think of him now as a series of tics and growls, but his seven-minute version of "With a Little Help from My Friends" begins in complete control, slowly building until halfway through, when his sweet-voiced backup singers ask, "Do you need anybody?" Cocker responds ... well, it's hard to describe exactly what he howls. But there's no happier sound. And no matter how long people get together to listen to music, there won't be another moment when singer, song and audience merge so completely...
