The rawness and honesty of that voice, gone. Thanks, Joe. We're more than grateful to have heard you sing.

Maryn, with a tear

I can't utter enough bad words. Great, honest talent, always. One of the very few singers who could cover an originally great song, and do it better. Items:

"Come Together"
"She Came In Through the Bathroom Window"
"With a Little Help from My Friends"

(all by the Beatles)

"Dear Landlord" (by Bob Dylan)

"Bird on a Wire" (by Leonard Cohen)

many others.

Shit.
