J.J. Cale - Downtown L.A.

[Melojazz1]

I respect Mark Knopfler .Reminds me a lot of him.Sauf que ce n´est pas J J Cale

[LudwigHammersnitzel]

Astonishing melodic bass runs on this track, effortless JJ guitar pickin. Easy groove :)

[meckoat]

listen to the master at work,he reminds me of a fine wine, bottled

[86Giedje]

It the other way around, Dire straits sound like JJ Cale!

[AndyMayBee]

Fantastic! Knopfler has to thank JJ million times. I bet he does too, and Clapton. JJ is the best songwriter -guitar player ever, easy.

[CleoReisJunior]

J J Cale é anterior à Dire Straits. Eles é que beberam na fonte "Cale".]

I bought the CD you list in the info two weeks ago because of your video. I hardly knew anything else but JJ Cale's name before but then I stumbled across this song here and I couldn't keep from playing it again and again. Thanks for that ;)

[glimmer2158]

It's the law of the jungle with a gun and a knife, if you stay long enough you lose your life. Brilliant lyrics and dito song and if you ever been to donwtown LA you will understand what the song is about...

Just too bad the song is so short, especially ending with a very nice solo.

[louiseduvee]

Has this been re-mastered? Sounds terrific!

[1in1universe]

JJ Cale rocks and i like the picture too.

[Beerzini3886]

This is it

[kentishtown1]

0.53 is the best guitar riff in this song

[kentishtown1]

what an amazing song

[louiseduvee]

Finally, people are getting into Mr. Cale. His songs sound so simple, but, they're not at all. You can easily tell how complicated they are, listening to this song. Thank you!

[brummbaer50]

@louiseduvee ...yeah, dear Lou, I think same as you!!! J.J. Cale forever!!!! greetings from old german fan!!! ;o))

[louiseduvee]

I wonder how many drum machines are on this track? I hear three, but it might be two. He surfs on the beat with his huitar...

[bradbershad]

I love the Cosmo Kramer thing at the end!

[tojoconfused]
