I'm so sorry to hear he lost his battle with cancer. Saw his Mad Dogs concert. It was one if the best concerts I'd ever been to. He kept us rocking throughout. RIP

I saw it in Cleveland. Rita Coolidge was the Delta Lady? Joe came out, sang, threw up on stage, kept singing and finished the concert.

For a laugh, Google joe and John Belushi.

Joe did a lot for kids with his charity.

Very sad. A real entertainment force in our 'early days.' There will never be another like him. God rest his soul.

I was at Woodstock also. His performance was incredible, as was everyone else's. !! He had the unmistakable voice.

It's because of him that I met my husband of 45 years. I was at a curb service hot dog drive in when he pulled up next to me. We talked about With A Little Help From My Friends and I mentioned I couldn't find the 8 track. He said he had it. We went to his place and got it. He and the cassette came home with me. We married 3-1/2 months later. Ahhhh, the late 60's.

Watch Mama Cass' reaction at the end of Janis Joplin's Ball and Chain performance at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival.
