Joe plays a blinder on his second album with The Grease Band. The hits kept flowing with more amazing Beatles' covers (this time - She Came In Through The Bathroom Window, Something and Let It Be), Leon's Delta Lady and Dylan's Dear Landlord among others.
His interpretations are so good it's easy to forget the source!
Where do they all belong? I have him in the mixed genre section because he can do pop, rock, blues and soul with the best of them!
