Hi Karen Thomas. Remember Garry R B. Qbn Gun Club. Harmen etc, JJ Cale Rules and will be a part of us forever. You are a Lady. Remember Kenny Rogers just before you left for Victoria. and you cried real tears from the softness of the pretend hard exterior. 30/40 Years AGO. Still Love You Sailor Lady. xxx Garry.xxx

[Emin7]

the 70s at their very best

[helltopay1]

....especially on Ryanair.

[koverm]

the random animations of the vid are pretty... eeh...

but damn this song is perfect

[yoseiki]

if people ever wonder where eric clapton, mark knopfler etc got their 'sound' from.....

this guy can set a mood ;)

[AndyMayBee]

@yoseiki Eric and Mark, you should give JJ half of your money, since he was the one who gave you "your" sound, the best part of it, I mean.

[hounddig]

this guys brilliant. his style is always consistent - pure groove & feel. some guys write in such a high vocal range that they cant sing it live or are croaking by the end of the set with 20 more shows on the tour! lol! JJ has probably never had laryngitis from singing - probably a lot of cotton mouth! And the royalties from 'cocaine' and 'call me the breeze' etc... set him up early for creative freedom & notoriety. Yep. Brilliant

[sjahinn]

very nice music, what i realy appreciate is that he does not dominating atall in his music,kind of impertionism thought. exelent music anyway

[glimmer2158]

Cool tune

[hearnstr]

SWEET!

[TheHeliumkid]

needs more cowbell

[PatwMartin]

Why am I finding genius like this so late in life...

[oldman1911A1]

Got into JJ in about 74. Never listened to his music before midnight. It was always a good way to slow down after a wild night. Great to listen to even at "late night" volume. Awesome music.

[theo1970able]

ONE OF THE BEST JJ CALE"S SONGS ! USED TO LISTEN TO IT DRIVING AROUND THE SOUTH STATES 

[rogoldomedonfors]

its a mind-blowin' record! never knew jj done disco!

[renekamakura]

real deep music good era by the way i enjoyed it very much and still do

[zivoderac]

Aaaaa-meeen! Allelliah!

Браво мајсторе - тако се то ради!

[sidensvans67]

Great player.. so cool..

[54spiritedwill54]

what an awesome guitarist :)

[puchg145f]

what a great, epic song! JJ Cale - most underrated bluesman ever!

[cas3003]

My best song by JJ Cale!

One of the best songs ever!

Used to hear it back in the late 70's in a tape.

I remember it faster...lol!

I can hear it for years (and I did)...

[fayeroe1009]

Leon Russell was born in Apache, Oklahoma and lived there until he left for California. I'm from Lawton and met him when I worked for Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings.

[mazuk33]

Many guitar players was influenced by him ... He is great!!!.... Amazing ....

;-D

Cheers from Brazil

[glimmer2158]

Surely Mark Knopfler was influenced by J J Cale.

[bluessando]

Certainly !!  Hi Glimmer.....

[pathfinderdaddy]

For sure. Eric Clapton as well. JJ Cale in his own man in his own time, A true original. He arranges and produces all of his cuts. No fanfare, it's all about the sound and the message.He hates the business and showboat side of music.

[jolandasterbloem]

FAVOURITE SINGER OF ME..

[johntcolo]

LOL, I am an Okie and been watching JJ since the 70's. Saw him do Cocaine and After Midnight years before Clapton snapped em up. He was so far ahead of his time. I love Carry On and some of his earlier tunes. Another band you should check out is Dwight Twilley, they are also from Tulsa and just as relevant. Something about Okla and producing musicians, we damn sure got our fair share!

[carde028]

argh, ive always wanted to knw what an Okie is, as in from muskogie?

[CommercialVehicle]

the Tulsa sound !

Twilley has a brand new album ...

[rfw45]

As a fellow Okie, I'd love to hear your take on OK musicians. I am a huge Clapton fan, but as we know, he's from the "Other side of the pond". lol

[jltardiff]

Merle Haggard is actually from California, born in Bakersfield. Okie is just an abbreviation for Oklahoma. JJ was acutally born in OKC, but raised in Tulsa. Leon Russell born in Lawton, also raised in Tulsa.. Don Cherry father of Eagle Eye was from OKC. Used to go to shows a lot at the Boomer Theatre, saw some great acts, Steve Forbert when he started out, got him to sign his first LP, gave em out free at the show! Dan Hicks was memoriable! As sarcastic as Milton Berle.

[CYCLOS25]

un bon morçeau de jj Cale. Agreable et reposant

[tomthefunky]

Tom Petty just played this on his sirius/xm show. The album version is longer than this. J.J's music is so fun to jam to. He makes a musician want to jump right in with the band. Thanks for the post.

[Trey1013]

Its "Travelin Light" !!!! Not Lights!!!!!!!!!

[taxirock]

you´re right....

I´ll change it.

[louiseduvee]

I think J.J. Cale always sounds best with Christine Lakeland on rhythm guitar. This is a favourite!

[jltardiff]

Christine is ALWAYS with JJ in recent years, Eric even paid a compliment to her after their tour. She is a nice guitar player and is learning at the feet of 2 masters. I expect some great things from her when she finally makes her debut CD, she is also easy on the eyes, always seems happy.

[jltardiff]

DUH, My bad. Christine has her own website and has released a lot of her own music, worth checking out.  She is a very talented musician and has been with JJ for about 30 years now!

[elvispdude]

"Solidly one of the unique sounds of progressive Rock & Roll!"

[KENOEFF]

JJ Cale = GREAT !!!!!!

[travlr423]

man i love to listen to j.j. even though other great artist like eric clapton one of my greatest idols and lynard skynard made great recordings from j.j.cale lyrics when j.j. does it,it just comes alive. j.j.cale a master of the art.thats all you can say.

[bobibluesman]

a very special voice...

[sidensvans54]

The Best here is ..

On the road in the wild...

[sidensvans54]

Fantastic guitarist just..:)

Great...

Soooooo cool..

[astroman287]

good driving song!

[stefanoboxing]

man

I am about to get my drivers licence

best comment yours

Ima listen to it on my first ride alone

but it looks like this song is slowed a bit

the version I listened some time ago was faster

[pentdiva]

I've been listening and loving Cale for almost 30 yrs now and I'll never tire of his music.

[nicegermany]

same with me

[BenZart]

ask ten different people who jj cale is..try it...you will get ten different answers,and the one who gets it right,is the one u should swap records with :D..salutations jean jacques,the king of cajun cool..

[atomic116090]

benzart, jj doesn't stand for jean jacques, this is a big misunderstanding made up by a french reporter, his real name is actually just "john" but since there already was a artist called john cale (from the velvet underground), john's manager decided to use the stagename JJ Cale ;)

[lainey500]

we touch of the abba funk in there ha ha

[MiAnKa71]

This is true music.JJ Cale is the real songwriter.This really works.So simpple but it works so good.Hypnotic.

[jammarama]

Nobody loves JJ more than The Beat Beggars from Rochester, NY... find us on youtube...many JJ songs with some unique renditions. "I don't care what momma don't allow. We're gonna play JJ anyhow..."

[andrewnielsen]

I heard Cocaine on the radio when I was in high school but thought to myself "no point looking into that, just some one hit wonder into drugs." Oops.

[frydaytomato]

Cocaine is one of his less interesting tunes, to the real Cale fans ...but it gave him the boost he needed to get his good songs out there . He's a treasure .

[frydaytomato]

Tulsa's own Johnny Cale - thanks for posting

[bushlime]

Superb song. Love J.J.Cale

[bigcoolviking]

Traveling light not 'lights' Anyway a great driving song.. listenes to this for years and it still sounds fresh and well cool !!( In Scotland) Funny thing THIS but I was doing some work for an american couple over here near Aberdeen a few years back and we talked a lot about music swapped some music tapes etc etc I Introduced them to the Scottish band 'Runrig' They were blown away by them!! I was blown away by the fact they had never heard of JJ Cale !! phew !! well they have now for sure lol

[face5577]

A former co worker and I traded some music I gave him WP and he gave me some JJ Cale cds compilations and some other JJs stuff, I can not thank him enough for showing me JJ, this is why utube is so great

[thailow117]
