I actually met JJ Cale and the band in the early 70's. I wiggled my way into the after party when they performed here. He drank Schlitz beer and smoked Kools. What thrill for a 15 year old.

Hi John. Just wanted to say what a great job your doing. After many years of playing and then a few years ago I had an accident with a machine damaging my left hand leaving me with weakness and not able to bend one of my fingers I have slowly got things moving again after listening and watching you playing. Getting better all the time i'm playing things I thought I would never play again playing chords in different ways. So thanks for every thing you do with out knowing it. Keep up the good work via your vids. Keith C

Good to hear. I have the same benefit with my Parkinson's symptoms (which affect both hands but left worse so far), John has helped me adapt to slower bendier style, and more palm muting sweep picking etc. It's why I stick around here.

This video reminded me of my mom teaching me how to count beats and using a metronome back in 1959 LOL. Wish I had paid more attention to those piano lessons instead of cutting my sisters' roller skates up to make skateboards!

I recently became aware of JJ Cale on an older You Tube video of one of Eric Clapton's " Crossroads" shows.JJ Cale played After Midnight with Eric Clapton and Eric looked astoundingly pleased with JJs style and rendition of the song.

JJ did that song before Clapton did Clapton played several JJ songs.He also wrote they Call Me The Breeze.

I love the John Mayer version. I also love Skynrd's and obviously the original.

That guitar sounds terrible. You know your theory but the actual playing has no essence of JJ Cale at all. No feel.
