The tone of JJ's guitar is simply stunning.

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. One of my best memories. We played 3 x. I won once. I'm sober 30 plus years now. Eric was a big influence in my early sobriety. God bless you.

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.

FREEDOM. :}

In the 70s in Finland we were listening to JJ Cale. Then there was a time I kind of forgot about him but now he is back loud and strong. Our newest kitty is called Breeze just because.

JJ Cale, Eric Clapton's hero.

I fancied listening to a bit of jj cale and discovered this , wow ....❤

It just doesnt get better than that. 2 great songs by JJ Cale.

JJ Cale here showed what he did , not too many years before his passing. RIP JJ, man of so many songs , rhythms....!!

Just so kool, the way he just lays down a tune and slides onto the stool, then wanders around whilst picking! I love JJ, RIP my man.

I might go out to California...might go down to Georgia...I might stay here. Smooth.

was blessed as a lad to hear JJ in house by now now 84 yr old dad. always one of my favorites - couldn't help but turn my HS and college pals onto him. Is there better mellow cool? and with another fixture of my music years, Clapton, on stage... wow!

Friday afternoon and listening This is 100% Pure bliss 💙

What makes EC so great, is that he doesn't have to be the man all the time. He will play rhythm and let others solo-no ego

I agree so much with these comments above. Eric certainly doesn’t crave the limelight. He loves his craft not the glamour!

Yeah. He wasn't always that way though. In the 60s and part if the 70s. He had a legendary ego but, I guess most of us do grow up. It would sure be nice to have his talent and experiences when I grow up. I'm only 53 now so, I got a ways to go yet. Thank goodness. He always seems like a class act and a hell of a guy these days.

Exactly, I fully agree and I appreciate that too very much as I do his 'low-key'-solos Michael

The one and only JJ Cale ..yea baby

Hi. Johnny here,64 years young. JJ one of first rockers I REALLY got into. Had older sister so first exposed to Beatles early years. As patty got into high school I got ahold of Burden and the Animals. Starting to get interesting. Brother Joe began getting high so found Airplane, Hendrick and such. Southern rock beginning to become a thing.one of those things became my fav, JJ Cale. Remained so for life. Damn was he cool. So fing smooth. Everything he did seemed effortless. And the music so different ! I couldn't turn it off. JJ definitely in heaven. Hell couldn't let him in. He would have caused the fires to go out. He was just that damn COOL!!! Still that damn COOL! I'll be cranking him up forever. Well till hell calls me home. Pretty sure they'll let me in!! I¡ Not that cool and I've spent last 50 years busting my ass to earn my ticket.

JJ and Eric, the best there has been and will be!! Heard it 40 years ago.

Wow I've just discovered JJCale last year.....Then heard he had died!! I was devastated,& did not know who he was & that he & EC were so close... WOW!?!?No Words for each one... I literally fell for JJ Cale!!!!

I'm 80 years old and I totally believe these 2 together are the best I have ever ever heard. Listen to the hot kicks bass in back And watch the little gal on the flat top playing rhythm guitar. Absolutely getting it. Eric turned to her and they upped the beat.

JJ Cale always the number one!

Anyone who can get Clapton to play backup is doing something right!
