In 2016, the singer and actor RITA COOLIDGE was interviewed by director JOHN EDGINTON about the phenomenal JOE COCKER and his 1970 musical journey across America - the infamous MAD DOGS AND ENGLISHMEN TOUR with LEON RUSSELL..
" He was the Music. Music was the force that was coming through him."
Rita describes having tea with Joe's mum and dad at Joe's Sheffield home and being shown his childhood bedroom.
"I could see him fitting in more in that room than on that big stage with all the crazy people."
The interview was conducted at the Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles - formerly the recording studios of A&M Records, who funded the 1970 tour .
This 2 mins clip was part of a filming session for the documentary JOE COCKER: MAD DOG WITH SOUL .
