Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [2]
One Night of Sin is the twelfth studio album by English singer
crime drama
An Innocent Man of that same year. The song is also notable because it was written by
Bryan Adams and
Jim Vallance . In addition, the former plays rhythm guitar on the song. Other notable songs on the album include a cover of "
One Night " (here as "One Night of Sin"), a #1 hit by
Elvis Presley from 1958, and "I'm Your Man" by
Leonard Cohen . The album also features "Another Mind Gone", which was the first album track in thirteen years co-written by Cocker— in the interim, he had also received songwriting credits for the songs “We Stand Alone” (from the 1986 soundtrack to the film
Wildcats ) and “Now That You’re Gone” (from the soundtrack to the 1987 German film
The Crack Connection [de ] ). “Another Mind Gone” was dedicated to
B. J. Wilson , Cocker's former bandmate and a friend.
