1984 studio album by Joe Cocker
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [1]
Civilized Man Joe Cocker , released in May 1984, his first on the Capitol label. It includes a cover of the 1981 Squeeze hit "Tempted ", as well as "There Goes My Baby ", a 1959 hit single from The Drifters .
Songs for the album were recorded at two different sessions. Side "A", recorded at Village Recorders in Los Angeles, was produced by Gary Katz and features as a backing band the core of the then current group Toto (Steve Lukather , Jeff Porcaro , and David Paich ), whereas side "B", recorded in Nashville, was produced by Stewart Levine , and features Music City stalwarts (David Briggs , Reggie Young and Larrie Londin ). The album also features an appearance by Joe Cocker's former bandmate Jim Keltner (on "Long Drag Off a Cigarette").
Civilized Man , along with its predecessor Sheffield Steel , marked the beginning of a new era of Joe Cocker albums, giving way to a much fuller style of production and taking more advantage of technology to experiment to produce more contemporary sounding music. Civilized Man expanded on the success of his previous album, selling well in Europe.
