haha not really,,wiki .. In 1970, it came to his attention that Eric Clapton had recorded Cale's "After Midnight" on his debut album. Cale, who was languishing in obscurity at the time, had no knowledge of Clapton's recording until it became a radio hit in 1970
@tomneff703015 күн бұрын
@minstrelofMir OH Yes...Really!!! Cale originally recorded After Midnight in 1968 as a single. Delaney Bramlett turned Eric on to that record..which did not get any airplay after its release. Eric loved it and put it on his first solo record. He has always been enamored with Cale's playing. But Cale didn't release his first solo album until 72. As you know..he finally got his chance to make a record with Cale in 2006. He referred to Cale as his "Hero". in an interview you can google.He's covered 5 of Cales songs. Yes...he IS his mentor. And as Neil Young said.....The best and most influential guitarists to come out of the 20th century were Jimi Hendrix and JJ Cale. Even Eric knows that. Yes...he is his mentor.
@tomneff703015 күн бұрын
@minstrelofMir And let's not forget the influence he had on Mark Knofler. It's so obvious at times even Cale commented on it .And I love Mark's playing.Listen to Water of Love for example. And Cale was playing with his fingers long before Mark had a band.I always wondered if Cale's style of playing is where got the idea. I saw Cale during his first tour in 72 in Boulder Colo and I was completely blown away by his touch.I saw him 4 times. And I feel both lucky and thankful.

I used to play pool with Eric in Antigua I worked as a Chef at the Copper and Lumber Store. Pool was played At Dougie's place after hours. Eric had been sober for a bit. I wasn't.

Richard, a long time ago, I flew to Antigua from NYC for the "Around the Island" sailboat race; don't know if it's still going. When I boarded the plane, I saw Eric sitting in first class. I asked the stewardess if that was him, and she responded yes. I thought nothing of it and, at the time, didn't know anything about Dougie's or that Eric had a rehab facility on the island. After hearing about Dougie's and that he was a regular, I decided to visit. One evening, I walked up the stairs and saw a few pool tables off to the right. I wrote my name on the chalkboard against the back wall and waited for my turn. I didn't even notice he was in there playing pool. I ended up playing against him, and won! He was such a kind, mild mannered guy. No ego whatsoever. He introduced himself as Eric, and that was it.

JJ Cale was an American treasure that too few knew about, unfortunately. He wrote so many songs made famous by others that it's actually hard to believe. He has a serious case of "bed-head" here! No glamor issues with JJ; he was the real deal.

I so agree. I think it was Clapton's way of thanking an unsung hero. JJ Cale never wanted stardom, but it suits him nicely. My fav is the breeze song. Rolling along.

Cale brought out the best of E.C. once E.C. discovered him, and this relationship worked out to both men`s benefit and mutual respect for each other.

B.B. is so good at that.

The ground thinking of JJ, the pleasure of Eric C to share this moment with him, the smile of satisfaction of Christine looking the appreciation of his man to in the happiness, the bassman Rosenberger, quiet but him too sharing his good feeling.
