Probably the most understated song even written. After listening to it for 30 years I still get the magic every time. JJ Cale is one of the greatest song writers of our time.
With his recognizable vocal phraseing, muffled guitar style and sparsely instrumentation JJ cale represents summary of the laid-back rock .Just floating meter above the Mexican desert. Enjoy,
Such a great song from J.J. Cale! I like his style with this crossover. would be nice to hearand see him on tour....but germany is so far away....J.J. please come to Germany with your tour!!!! WONDERFULL MUSIC!!!!
@hansiwalker No. It would be better if he had fans running around buying all his albums. I've been acquainted with him since the 70's. He should have been famous DECADES ago. Most people haven't been with him since the beginning of his career---only musicians. Now, he's starting to get a little of what he deserves.
@louiseduvee i know what you mean. i saw him play a bit with Phish in Berkely and he was super shy. played with his back to the audience. but he was amazing and i learned just how many songs he had written that became hits for other people. great artist.....
@louiseduvee Being famous is for the less-talented ;) btw if I were him I'd rather have a handful of real people as fans than a million dumb suckers with no taste whatsoever *ahem lady gaga cough*
@gnarlyTHRASHER Don't worry. Most all of your friends do listen to his music. :) Most folks know his music from others covers. Clapton, Santana to just name a few.. John Cale is a star to the stars that audiance's know.
@louiseduvee frustrated muscians perhaps ....with big ear dishes able to hear the sweet refinement ....and backyard ,front porch groove of JJ cale ...
@louiseduvee famous doesn't mean anything, If I were a musician I'd rather have 100 fans that know what real music is than a million that listen to it because it's 'in'. More fans isn't always better
@louiseduvee i agree with you. but maybe when he was famous he couldnt make this kind of music anymore. by the way he has respect from so many famous musician and if you listen to dire straits then you know where they have the inspiration from. jj cale is a big inspiration. ask clapton, he is a big admirer. they have made an album together ( but i know you know this) pardon my english. peace and out
you can't fake this shit.

Cause he doesn't seem to do it for the money or fame but for the music itself.
It shines through, and we just got to love him for it... way to few musicians these days that would rather make a good album then the big payday
