Joe Jackson - Nocturne

[@junkshopcoyote]

I'm a huge JJ fan, and this is my favorite piece by him ever. From the criminally overlooked orchestral album Will Power.

[@vegforlife555]

WOW what musical range this man has. Beautiful classical piece. I consider myself fortunate to have seen him live at Madison Square Garden in 1984.

[@simliverpool22]

Simply outstanding. Sends shivers down the spine. Gets better everytime i listen to it.

[@HaggisnNeeps]

Its all about the timing...and those haunting dischords. I can tell its only us die-hard JJ fans that know of this number! :D x

[@Katy51844]

I have liked Joe Jackson's music for years, but didn't know that he was so talented as to do this AND his popular music. Wonderful!

[@chriswhittle5075]

Well said. No one ever mentions that he won the Grammy 5 times running for Most Overlooked Artist. Or would have, in a just world, a proper world. Sigh.

Ce Nocturne me touche, je ne l'avais pas écouté depuis bien longtemps. Il me rappelle cette musique étrange venue d'ailleurs d'un Federico Mompou...

[@mostlikelyrob]

Forgot all about this beautiful song on an album that for whatever reason, no-one, not even die-hard Joe Jackson fans know about which is sad because this is a masterpiece...

[@Jasontis1]

I'm the only one I know who owns and listens to this album. magnificent.

[@janackova]

I may be another person. He is very talented.

[@david8905]

You are not alone. "Will Power" is an overlooked gem of creativity.

[@green-isaac-ii]

Me too, I bought Will Power right away after being blown away by this as the opening track on 'The Collection'

[@gilles.leguen]

you can find this LP in any dollar bin records on the street. i bought my copy when the album first came out. but this vinyle is everywhere.....

[@olivierarradon7593]

Excellent !!!

[@RONMEXICO1100]

Jesus wept my god what a talent

[@mrbazzabee4013]

I remember him playing this...on 'The Tube' @ the time.

[@Katy51844]

Yeah, I've got most CDs of his and never heard this gorgeous music. We made a 24 mile trip to see him at an evening outside concert. Unfotunately as we got closer the sky turned darker. By the time we got there, there it was raining and lighning. Being outdoors, the concert was cancelled. What a disapointment.

[@Katy51844]

You are right about die-hard fans. I have appreciated his music for years, but had no idea that he did anything like this.

[@PREtersen]

hes the one

[@paulsanders860]

Wow!

[@Katy51844]

You're right.. I'm a die hard fan and had no idea he did this sort of music. I believe that someone has told me on this comment section where I can get this.

Album: Will Power

[@thomfmify]

Also a fan of Claude Debussy.

[@graemelake657]

My funeral song

[@haydencoats1302]

I’m gonna get my piano teacher to let me play this at fall recital

[@flyonthewindscreen02]

Hi there, most of Joe's music is available as sheet music from his store. A search for "Joe Jackson sheet music" will get you there :-) Enjoy!

[@kasimsultonfan]

Sublime piece. It's all about the use of discord.
