This anthology does as fine a job of covering the peaks of Joe Cocker`s career as any single disc possibly could. Things kick off with Cocker`s studio version of the Beatles` "With a Little Help From My Friends," which helped make him a star via his Woodstock performance. Thereafter, Cocker made his name as a gritty, soulful interpreter of material from the pop/rock world. With the guidance of then-bandleader Leon Russell, the Boxtops` "The Letter," the Fab Four`s "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window," and others were transformed into sweaty, soul-drenched wonders.
In the 1980s, hard-living Cocker cleaned up his act both personally and musically, scoring a hit with the romantic pop ballad "Up Where We Belong," a duet with Jennifer Warnes that was the theme for the film AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN. He hadn`t lost his tawdry touch, though, as proven by his popular `86 version of the randy Randy Newman tune "You Can Leave Your Hat On," also featured in another successful `80s film (9 1/2 WEEKS). ULTIMATE COLLECTION closes with a 2000 version of Leonard Cohen`s "First We Take Manhattan," proof that over 30 years down the road, Cocker hadn`t lost his knack for picking great material.
