Just what I was about to say - these guys obviously save their efforts for what matters, not bling....but one artist's bling I absolutely love is Zucchero, his music is even better, definitely worth a listen if you don't already know him. The music speaks for itself.
Can't get enough of this song. I am sure I will completely destroy what hearing I have left with my earphones jacked up so high. Never the less it will be worth it. Oh, I'm 76 years old and love this kind of music. RIP JJ. Update, 1/10/2020 I’ll be 78 tomorrow and I still can hear. Latest update 1/12/2021 day after my 79th Birthday and I can still hear. JJ never sounded better. 1/11/2022 Just wanted to say still rockin to JJ on my 80th and thanks to all of your kind words over the years. When I wrote the original comment 5 year ago, I didn’t dream of so many responses. It was never my intention to distract from JJ’s performance. Now that I’ve said that , I just turned 81 and am still rocking out with this song. Guess my hearings better than I thought.😂 Oh my, I missed my own birthday on Jan 11. Not much to say but another year older, 82 now. JJ and crew still sounding as good as ever.
Who would have known some 50+ years later us "hippies" would still be ROCKING to this amazing music.... We are truly blessed to be from a generation of fantastic music enjoyed by todays youth as well. J.J. was amongst the very best, just ask Eric!
Beautifully said and I’m 81 years old and I’m rocking to this music everyday. Mybhusband and I danced until early hours most weekends. Passed away seven years ago and I’m still dancing in front of his photo. Keep rocking and you will live to a hundred🙏Sydney Australia 👍
am 72 years old but when I walk around I put on headphones, when I hear Call me the breeze if I am alone in the elevator or there is no dance. wonderful JJ. wonderful humble
I'm 45 and have discovered JJ Cale late but from that time I can' help I must listen him from time to time to feel ALIVE :))) and can't stand sitting :))) RIP JJ, hope God and angels enjoy your talent ;)
My grandpa was a sailor whan I was a kid he play him me all time - He bought a cassette tape somewhere in the USA and under communism in Poland it was something - WOW! I was 5 years old !!! I love JJ Cale . I Still got this tape and all CD's !!! BEst Regards from Gdynia -Poland !!!
I'm 54 and I'm blessed to have grown up listening to J.J. Cale. My dad is a fan. I knew all the songs on Naturally before my 2x table and all the songs on Troubador befefore my 9x table.
Jeez I’m only 66 I feel young here: great jam I’m a musician myself and will NEVER stop rocking. Drinking yea I quit that a long time ago , rocking, never! Love this
That's what the old folks said about this when it originally came out. Hippy noise. Now run along I think there's some kids in your yard you need to yell at
I am 79,, feb 2022 and still JJ Cale, dead 9 years agoi is still there... what a sh.. the new music of inculture d people. E Clapton, and JJ Cale in Tulsa, what a great moment. I am Franch drum player of jazz for 60 years.........
I can still remember the day I first heard Naturally on vinyl it was 1970 I was 19 years old and I thought man this music for the rest of my life how lucky I am
Not one ego trying to shine, a bunch of true musicians, there for the fun of it, and our pleasure, Thank you one and all, lets hope future generations' get it '.....
Compare this to going into a restaurant and having to listen to contemporary rap-crap, insipid monotone computer-produced "country" rap garbage, while you are wondering 'will these people ever get a clue' and wishing you had brought ear plugs.
did i get through? turned 80 today, and am still on the right side of the grass! makes me smile, laugh...and try to dance. doesn't get much better...crossroads on my mind🥴
Mr Cale, A work of 🎨...one of the best, Of the BEST 🎸 players! Not to mention SONG writer. Continue your rest in SHALOM! Thanks for the beautiful Journey..🎶.. JJ-🎸🎵..🌄...🌎...
Don’t think he’ll be forgotten anytime soon. Such an amazing body of work. I’m 52 and have been a fan for 30 some odd years. I could (and often do) listen to nothing but him all day and not miss any of my other favorites. So glad I was alive for some of the same years as him, never got the chance to see him live but just being exposed to his songs is something special. Thanks, J J!
8/30/2023 I can not say enough about J. J. Cale. His influence on my music and guitar playing is massive. No matter which way he starts the tune, the rolling beat soon has you clapping your hands, stomping your foot, and singing along. When I heard Mark Knopfler say J. J. influenced his music and style, that sealed the deal. J. J. Cale is the best and most underrated musician from rock and roll. From the first time I heard "Crazy Mama" (summer 1970) He had my ear. I miss him greatly.
…..on the road to Escondido, I met Mr. Cale. I’m an old car guy, JJ services his wife car in ….Escondido, Ca! Modest, almost shy, none the less almost a god to me and mine. Bless his heart
Thank you for posting this video I'm very impressed I love Mr Cale RIP JJ ❤️ I'm 72 I was on T.R.O.S TV Utrecht in 1973 with my band The Southern Ramblers supporting Bill Anderson and a great Dutch band called The Tumbleweeds happy days!
wished id heard of him many years ago, unfortunately here in the UK most never heard of him, or know any of his music. Sad, what have they missed! I found him through a friend 15 years ago and WOW, blew my mind. Do love this one, but the crossroads one with Eric for me is just amazing.
When you were/are the "go to" person for people such as Knopfler and Clapton you can be sure you have that special something. JJ was in a class of his own yet so humble, unaffected and comfortable in his own skin. Love him. Sad he departed way too soon and his death was the "day the music died".
Me too. I'm glad at 79 music is still one of the best things in my life. My appreciation for it just keeps growing. Came of age in the 60's. A real fine time to grow up and wake up!
@@lamanley It's the same with me, coming up to 80 now, and loving music, the same as ever, I don't live in the past, and love a lot of this new stuff on U tube
Keep returning to this greatest version of the Breeze. Been picking up all his albums and so many wee gems of tracks that don’t reach Greatest Hits or Anthologies. A musician in a class of his own!
Been doing the same thing lately. It just suddenly all clicked once I hit 58. Always had those first 4 albums, but now they're stacking up (along with the previously unreleased stuff).
Que malos tiempos nos vienen siguiendo junto a nuestras leyendas del arte de la música, la música y la mía es el R&R,pero no me puedo olvidar del folclore argentino y de tantas palabras que son las que se pueden gritar hoy . Desde Bilbao un saludo
