[@ronmahaffey3381]

I'm 72 and I've been listening to JJ since the 60s. He's the man,

I'm 75 now and JJ is still the man.🎉❤

[@bsnf-5]

JJ was the coolest cat around. Great posthumous album, thank you Christine for sharing your late husband's unreleased material.

[@mintonmiller]

Now I know why Waylon Jennings sang "JJ Cale is a hero, the best I've ever heard. Ya gotta sing a little louder Hoss, I can't hear the words. Some folks call him rock and roll, some folks call it blues. But I detect a country soul and I've seen his cowboy shoes".

[@danielward6562]

Before they all passed on; I heard that JJ Cale, Roy Orbison, Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard and Tony Joe White and maybe even more I didn't hear about, were wanting to do an album together. I wish it would've happened.

[@WolffBachner]

One great thing about being old is that I spent my entire life from the age of 22 listening to JJ Cale. I turned 69 yesterday, and this album made my Birthday even better.

[@allaltadli4130]

Same to me. Have a good time.

[@countblue]

I did something quite similar. He is accompaning me since avery long time. He will do so until I leave. I play his songs everyday on my guitar.

I love J J Cale and all his music he's a legend ❤❤❤ RIP

[@oilfieldron5800]

My dad was raised in Tulsa Oklahoma back in JJ's time. He told me stories are going to the honky-tonks listen to him drinking beer. I was raised listening to his music it's timeless. I'm 60 years old now. I miss the passing of both men very much. Fond memories of my dad listening to this music. Thank you for sharing the new JJ album much appreciated 👍

[@venkatramani5972]

Absolutely...a underrated musician,composer guitartist and in my view deserves to be up there....and a genius who comes once in a 100 years ..yet Justin Bieber concerts are full..kids don't know real men and music..these days ..glad I discovered all 60 to 70 years old s here I am 65...and an Indian who loved this genre of music from.my college days

[@hendrikvollmann3830]

So true

She also picked a beautiful title for the whole CD: Stay around.

[@johnshuler8688]

Such a soulful musician. Thank You for sharing this with the world that needs to discover Jj Cale!

[@geraldglaser5686]

JJ Cale was a true original, perhaps the most talented and creative musician that most people never knew about except through the recordings of more well-known musicians like Eric Clapton, Jerry Garcia, John Mayer, Jeff Beck , Mark Knopfler and Neil Young. His music is timeless and never ceases to astound me.

[@dylangracie1]

I've seen them all during this 72 year ride...always remembering Clapton and Knopfler at Royal Albert Hall, Jerry Garcia in Ann Arbor...and the list goes on...😎😎😎

[@ja-ja-eldorado]

iv been a JJ followeer for 20 years,

[@jrgenbjakobsen8969]

I agree what you say about JJ Cale - simple, but fantastic, ONE with what he did - always.

[@ronaldbuecker]

Since I was a schoolboy with the Albums Naturally, Really, Okie & Troubadour, drafted to army (#5, Shades), studying - while Grasshopper & #8 was playing, starting a job with Travel Log, marriage (Number 10, Closer To You), becoming Manager with the Guitar Man and To Tulsa and Back, becoming Father and divorced on The Road to Escondido, retired with Rewind and Roll on - J.J. Cale was with me all the time. He's a great part of my life.

[@timcastens1150]

Ronald Bücker that's awesome

[@danielgiraud2854]

Ronald Bücker, Bravo ! Good experience from the real life full circle, with a lil' help from J.J. If I were you, I'd have stopped in the army with record : "shades". Nothing new at the horizon. I love J.J. Cale.

[@brummbaer50]

Ronald, nearly same happened with me invery difficult steps of my life ... The so called "laid back style" JJ was playing, is so wonderful ! For me has been "You keep me hanging on" one of my favorites. Around 2010 there on KZbin has been a wonderful privat made video to this song! I'm so sad when I saw, the video has been deleted.

[@allaltadli4130]

Me too. I am listening since the 1970. This man is really great.

[@allaltadli4130]

For me too. He is a real part of my life. He is always the best. I always remember how I discovered that man .There was a tape in the trash can in the building. I picked up and played. And the story begun. That was J J CALE.

[@phillamb8792]

I grew up listening to Clapton, I am 60now. Cocaine is still one of my guitar jams, I never knew who this mysterious jj cale was. Not until crossroads music festivals. I never knew he had a successful band, till about 40. He should have been more recognized sooner, love his approach with his almost effortless style

[@roymangorgona4539]

Jj cale Music is about peace, humbleness, it makes people better

[@GainasBuzz]

It really heals me when in darkness. JJ is a friend although I never met him in person.

[@samirmokdad6459]

I never get tired listen on and on and on to the the great J.J. Cale, may his soul rest in peace⚘

[@cavecookie1]

I've been a big, BIG JJ Cale fan since the 70s. I am proud to say that in the last 20 years, I have introduced Mr. Cale to many people as old as I am...Made fans out of 'em all! At least one great accomplishment before I shrug off this Earthly veil!

Too bad JJ Cale passed away. He was one of the best sing and songwriters in North America.

Listen to him and Clapton together. Your can see the respect Clapton has for him. 2 Masters. Really in synch. They are both my all time favorites.

[@costasgiotakis3895]

He never gave a dime about prizes.

[@EyeShotFirst]

I'm glad the arrangements were left so open, like J.J. Cale should be. So many posthumous albums get these lush arrangements, and it just never really captures the artist's style quite right. This is a J.J. Cale album.

[@ronmahaffey3381]

At 72 I've been listening to JJ since the 60s. Like a lot of the rest of you,he's been a part of my life. He's my go to music. He left us way to soon. But he still lives....

It's never to late bro, jj is a master

[@walt1824]

I'm with you. Just learned about JJ and man, what a ride it's been!

[@TR-kj6qd]

I heard JJ back when Crazy Mama was a hit on the radio back in the 70's, but didn't know it was him....or didn't remember. And learned more about JJ due to the Clapton/JJ Road to Escondido. Quickly bought almost all his albums. I had no idea he wrote much of the music I listened to. Call me the breeze by Leonard Skynyrd, Clapton's covers, Neil Young and others. Then he passed a couple years later. Clapton and Friends - Call Me the Breeze album is well worn here. So grateful for his music. I can relate to all of your comments. Looking at 60 next month.... I'll spend part of it listening to JJ.

[@CaslavMitic]

same here bro.. i listening to Knopfler, and in comments one wrote "this is as JJ", and then I search for JJ and found out this great music maaaan

Oh well better late than never I guess but this is almost never. I have to thank Lynyrd Skynyrd for my intro to J.J .Cale through their cover of Call Me The Breeze which I first heard on the live album One More For The Road. Thank You and God Bless all the Skynyrd boys and girls who have departed this god for saken world . I have no doubt that we will have a really fine time in Heaven when it is all said and done. If the Skynyrd boys and girls were God's childern well that tells me God is saying we should all rock on when when we get together up yonder. Love and Peace to y'all. Amor y Paz. Siempre !!!!!!!

[@winterbeaches]

The mixing on this album is amazing.

[@flaracer32]

I think he done most of mixing, played several instruments his self. He started out as a board man and progressed from there. When Eric Clapton, among others, praise the music and makes John a millionaire you have to know how great he was Listening for 30 years. And John Prine to the mix as well.

Yup he had a degree in music engineering. And he tore his guitars apart and made them sound like he wanted them to.

One of the great things about j.j. is that he sings the verse and doesn't hardly ever repeat it and then the song is over, on to the next one....
