Joe Cocker: Mad Dogs & Englishmen (1971)
Directed by Pierre Adidge
Overview
“Joe Cocker - the Rotating Rocker - and his 42 member communal touring company Mad Dogs & Englishmen with the Master of Space and Time Leon Russell - see them perform in the pleasure palaces of America - it’s a moving picture” says the classic film poster. See this spectacular rock ‘n’ roll tour documentary and get a dramatic visual record that captures the spirit of the hippie era with mind-blowing performances, crazy backstage footage, and spaced-out interviews. Supporting cast includes Claudia Lennear, Rita Coolidge, Sherman Jones reciting “Face on the Barroom Floor,” and Canina the dog.
