[duckbiter]

[thetinkerer]

the Original JJ Cale

[duckbiter]

Need to chill when I'm hurtin, this is where I come.

[leosagcap5910]

I love them both, but watching Leon is an out-of-body experience.....

[dtatm101]

Coooooool.

[1blkgsd]

I dont like this I fuckin LOVE IT!

[taichijones]

extremely good - but wonder if everyone has heard beefheart cover this - his only true cover I think after howling wolf & blues masters in the 60s

[kathleenb1947]

I've been married 35 years....my husband knows he has competition. I'm just crazy nuts about Leon. Mmmmmmmm hmmmmmmm. Does me nice.

[davidphilipsmusic]

1 person is hyper active and didn't like how this made them feel.



[mcflashman]

One word, COOL

[Mlczdk1]

I love the "theory" but to me theory is fact.Those who care to look closely can see the progression.Leon and JJ were in band together as youngsters..each going on to change everything.Leon was present and influentuial in the change that occured with the british invasion.His impact is still not understood.JJ cale altered the direction of blues and set a new standard...Pretty good for a couple of okie hicks

[heymama1]

I love JJ Cale. I have to say, this sounds a LOT like the first Dire Straits album. I know JJ was around a long time before Dire Straits, so I think Knopfler must have had some heavy influence from JJ. That said, that first DS album rocks. But now I know why. Comments from anybody? I'd like to hear.

[TheBGSMusic]

@heymama1 , I think Knopfler will admit to taking a HUGE amount of inspiration from JJ. Two tracks in particular, in fact, you should take a listen to back-to-back. "Six Blade Knife" off the first Dire Straits, and "River Runs Deep" off the first JJ Cale record. The mood set is the EXACT same, and both are wonderful

[robinjohanssonmdh]

@heymama1 True, also their second album Communique are very J.J. Cale-style:)

[leosagcap5910]

The quiet power of this is almost overwhelming. Leon and JJ - awesome!

[Mlczdk1]

Gonna find me a mountain..gonna hide hide out..A year since a post ?

These guys changed everything

[phaedra240]

This it it!

[Elavats]

I'm speechless.... thanks for posting this.

[tgwagers1]

[bullysmom74]

[Elavats]

Only one word for this...Wow.

[kathleenb1947]

I don't know if I like listening to Leon more or looking at him...... hot licks, indeed!

[Skwerrlly]

Awesome!J.J Cale is the coolest hipster in the universe,and Leon,well,that dude never changes,I saw him around 1971,and he still looks the same now!

[themikeymac55]

hey drummerhead dude 204 where did you see jj and leon play don't hold back

[themikeymac55]

i wish these 2 fantastic rockers would get together again and tour or put out this jam session out on cd are you listening jj or leon

[skb40cal]

@themikeymac55 I don't think they are in the shape to do a tour. Remember this was in '79, over thiry years ago.

[georgenmary1]

Where can I buy this stuff ?????

[speedbuggy]

I've only heard this song done by Lynyrd Skynyrd on one of their albums. Wow!

[TheBitterWeed]

Fucking hell - is that Harvey Keitel looking cool as fuck ? NO - It's JJ Cale ! The original desert Wolf-Man.

Blues Win.

[aquican]

[drummerdude204]

[slimjim02]

Congrats to Leon for making it finally. Class of 2011 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee, now I am just waiting for JJ to make it.

Two great artists getting it done, it does not get any better!

[noveds07]

Up-beat blues. Just friging love it.

[Sredderdude01]

Make you wonder what Ronnie VanZant thought of J.J. Cale.He sure liked to cover his songs.

[millicentbistander]

The serious real.

[bstroh707]

The audio quality on this vid is amazing! I can't believe how good it sounds for being so old.  JJ CALE ROCKS!!!! The video quality is equally stunning.

[jeanfred2]

I love Leon Russell so much

[kmc8ij1]

[lloydpayne58]

It doesn't get any better than this. We need more of the vintage JJ and Leon, they were so good together. I would love to see they back together, back to there roots.

[spacewrangler77]

Slinky, Sexy sound, that is laid back and effortless; JJ & Leon epitomize f'n cool...end of story

[MrLevi29]

[judecreek2]

Listening to JJ is a musical treat. Add Leon and you get a religious experience,

[beermerica]

@judecreek2 amen! couldnt have been any better said my friend!

[clayrad1]

Oh Yea!!

[jasason10]

Is this Skynyrds song or........

[osuwhit85]

@jasason10 No. Its JJ Cale's... the dude playing guitar. Skynyrd covered it.

[judecreek2]

Blues, jazz, country, bluegrass, or good ol' rock 'n' roll, if it's music, then Leon can play it better than anyone, A true honest to God musical genius!! This is why I'm a LeonLifer...

[rentatrip1]

[HHNARUTOSS]

Just discovered this ( 2009) --oh baby!!! One of the great duos of all time! Thanks JJ and Leon, it don't get no better than this!

[thelalle]

No version like Captain Beefhearts.

[Erulin68]

the entire recordings are for sale on DVD... well worth the money... as is any piece of "art"

[whoknewnotme]

WOW!! That was great. Thanks for sharing it with us. Just saw Cale- and will see Leon in a couple weeks- but together......they are extra hot.

[Garret00074]

JJ Cale is up there with Bob Dylan as one of our great songwriters...

[louiseduvee]

One of his best. The rhythm guitarist mis too often overlooked---Christine Lakeland!

[paraivan]

This is too nifty !! Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Wonderful performance.

[MacRaisen]

i can understand why lynyrd skynyrd covered that. that's their style.

[myhottea]

Love it! Thanks for sharing this!
