  • OOH I like this.

  • I finally caught him live at Vancouver's Cap College...this song in particular, ABSOLUTELY floored me! He had an incrediblely, sympathetic band...such a tasteful player, his finger picking is very underrated. The very embodiment of laidback, his entire style is SO complete...Clapton only wishes he was this good...

  • Magnificent..... I feel like crying this is so beautiful..... THANK YOU.....

    No other words required...... ♫♪ Լღvє ♫ ♪♪

  • Just had three/four of my Cale videos blocked in a row an "Closer to You" was 'Disabled', oh well; keepvid.com:)))

  • I simply LOVE IT!!!

  • @Edenclan, I seriously hope you are joking.

  • @FionnHand About what? Perhaps you're thinking of the Hendrix version too, like HWY60Juan who commented?

  • I think Neil Young must have heard this before he wrote Little Wing!

  • @Edenclan Jimi wrote Little Wing...

  • @HWY60Juan No, it's a different song called Little Wing by Neil Young. There's a great live version on YouTube but the studio version's on Hawks And Doves- might be on here too.

  • Woooow LOVE this

  • One of my Desert Island Disks...

  • composition of this is perfect, voice, instumental, all compliment each other.

  • Oklahoma is home to a number of talented artists...J.J. is only one of many but certainly one of our "favorite sons". His singing wasnt all that great...but his song writing talents were remarkable.

  • @kc5tng A great all-round musician I'd say, not just song writer. Maybe I'm in a minority, but I mostly think his vocals are just right. Sue Bob Dylan wishes he could sing that good now.

    

  • How have I only just discovered this? It's so beautiful..

  • What a beautiful song.....it takes my breathe away every time I hear it.

  • J.J. Truly a God.

  • A touchingly beautiful song. Love your video--great tribute to JJ Cale. I saw him in the 1970's--amazing performer and songwriter. His album "Naturally" is one of my favorites.

  • Beautiful. Thanks for posting. 

  • Heard this first song in a funeral. It was a strange feeling, of deep sorrow and lightful hope at the same time. I'll remember the feeling the final line gave me forever, saying final goodbye to an old friend... "I'll soon be there"...

  • They played this song at my grandmas funeral.

  • your video is a good video, please subscribe to my videos or few them please, much appreciated

  • I wish I get to see JJ Cale live once...I can die peacefully & smiling...and when I lie down on my deathbed, I want this song to play....to take me on to an eternal trip...

  • jj cale you sweet thing

  • Great song

  • Though I pay homage to the original!, such as here, I dig the instrumentation more on Poco's version. Sorry, but I really like Poco's smoother version, JMO. Thank you JJ.
