Johnnie Lang's "Lie to me" would be a gret follow-on song... All relationships being based on trust; how many lies do we allow before trust dies-?  Trust is two-way and earned...  I uess it depends on the subject of the lie

{#Clap} Now those adjectives sum J.J.Cale up about perfectly. "Obscene" and "slippery". Yup. But, in a good way...{#Cool}

Nick Spitzer with the American Routes radio show just did a great interview with JJ Cale, worth a listen.

One of the early bands I was in made the mistake of trying to play this tune.  It is absolutely impossible to get it to swing the way JJ does.

Happy 70th, JJ. You're one of the best.

Not as good as JJ's Naturally album, but still great.

It feels like downtown Grand Rapids, MI in the mid 70's...with the fake leopard skin landau roofs of the Buick deuce and a quarter with the corner feelers, so as not to rub the large white walls...let's not forget the Aquarius pillows in the back windows, just plain pimpin'!!

i like cale's laid back style, he's underappreciated as far as I'm concerned.

When I was a kid and liking the Eagles, a friend loaned me a scratchy ol' JJ Cale record. Life has never been the same.

I was actually surprised to hear any JJ Cale here on RP. Bill, I figured the lyrics were probably just too simplistic for your taste. I really enjoy JJ's music. He's got a great bluesy sound with a guitar that just can't miss. :) Then I look at your catalogue and you have lots of his songs! Silly me Edited By Leslie at 5:53 pm on 12/23/2001

Always enjoy the JJ Cale cuts, but BG, for something completely different, how about another Cale, John, some of his post-Velvet solo stuff. I realize JJ and John are apples and oranges, but that's what eclectic's about, eh?
