(J.J. Cale)
She's on the grounds, that's what they say
I heard the news only yesterday
She's on the prowl like a siamese cat
I hope I'm where it's at
She's got a lover
It's a guarantee
That her new lover
It ain't me
She's got a lover
That's what I'm told
She got a lover
I'm out in the cold
She's on the grounds, that's what they say
I heard the news only yesterday
She's on the prowl like a siamese cat
I must not be where it's at
She's got a lover
Puts her in a trance
She's got a lover
I ain't got a chance
She's got a lover
It's a guarantee
That her new lover
It ain't me
She's got a lover
That's what i'm told
She got a lover
I'm out in the cold

I love J.J. Cale. His music makes me feel like I'm floating down a slow-moving stream on a big raft with a joint in my hand and nothing but time to spare... Nicely put! |
| fretlessjones | Posted: Sep 29, 2012 - 12:50 Can't get enough of that guitar in JJ Cale's "New Lover"! Yow! |
| saloutwest (southern california) | Posted: Sep 29, 2012 - 12:48 Had the pleasure if seeing him with full band and tom petty with band mates sittin in at a very very small venue, and all I can say is awesome. |

Strat through a Mesa Boogie. You'd have to fiddle with the Strat settings. Don't know if he needs or uses effects. Probably, but the Strat and Boogie are a good start. |

| stratzippy (Tejas - here) | Posted: May 15, 2009 - 12:42 cool tone ... |
| Lazaerus (Valley of the Giants - Oregon) | Posted: Mar 13, 2009 - 09:42 It's a pickin style, rather than a strumming style. Mark is more prevalent... if you watch Mark, you can actually see him picking at the strings. bindi wrote: Sounds like the same amp/effects that Mark Knopfler uses - I wish I knew what makes that kind of sound - aside from those magic fingers. |
| Pyro | Posted: Mar 13, 2009 - 09:37 No one sounds like JJ. Very smooth. |

| tugandbuster | Posted: Mar 27, 2006 - 14:31 I've just discovered J.J. Cale recently, thanks to RP and my local station (oddly enough). Please play more J.J. Cale! :) |
| palexis (Palo Alto, CA) | Posted: Mar 27, 2006 - 14:29 I've noticed a lot more JJ Cale on RP lately. A very decent trend methinks. |
