I kind of liked his “Jumpin’ Jive” album. Still have a cassette of it around somewhere.

Don't you know that it's different for girls?

I think he looks pretty good for being my age. A lot of musicians my age are... dead.

When I got my first CD player one of the first CD’s I bought was Live ‘80 to ‘86. Great album!

He still puts on a great show. Unlike most people our age he’s not content to play his old hits as if he was a karaoke machine. He changes up the tempo. Changes the arrangement. Plays his music as if he still really *means* it. As opposed to a lot of ‘70s and ‘80s artists I’ve seen whose shows now could be replaced by lip-syncing to their old tape tracks, and no one would notice.

Saw him in 1982 and again last year. Forty years apart and he put on a great show both times.

Video quality is low, but here is Joe with William Shatner on (Jay Leno's) Tonight Show doing an interesting rendition of 'Common People': https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4myrb0

Enjoy!

I saw him at Union College Chapel in Schenectady in Fall 1979. Great show and great venue!

I always liked his music. I’m glad to see he’s still at it.

Saw him during the “Look Sharp” tour - can’t remember where (it was the 70s). Still have the 10-inch EP with the button.
