J J Cale : After Midnight ( Best Of )



Cale was born on December 5, 1938, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
He was raised in Tulsa and graduated from Tulsa Central High School in 1956.

Along with a number of other young Tulsa musicians, Cale moved to Los Angeles in the early 1960s, where he first worked as a studio engineer.

Finding little success as a recording artist, he later returned to Tulsa and was considering giving up the music business until Clapton recorded "After Midnight" in 1970.



His first album, Naturally, established his style, described by Los Angeles Times writer Richard Cromelin as a unique hybrid of blues, folk and jazz, marked by relaxed grooves and Cale's fluid guitar and laconic vocals

His early use of drum machines and his unconventional mixes lend a distinctive and timeless quality to his work and set him apart from the pack of Americana roots-music purists.

With his laid-back rootsy style, J.J. Cale is best known for writing "After Midnight" and "Cocaine," songs that Eric Clapton later made into hits.

But Cale's influence wasn't only through songwriting , his distinctly loping sense of rhythm and shuffling boogie became the blueprint for the adult-oriented roots rock of Clapton and Mark Knopfler, among others.

Cale's refusal to vary the sound of his music over the course of his career caused some critics to label him as a one-trick pony, but he managed to build a dedicated cult following with his sporadically released recordings.

" Plenty of People out there were trying to do Hard Rock .
I thought I'd slide into a slot nobody had covered "
J J CALE

MONEY  TALKS




Money talks, it'll tell you a story
Money talks, says strange things
Money talks very loudly
You'd be surprised the friends
you can buy with small change

They say it's the root of all evil
They say gold is the king

Money talks, you'd better believe it



All that gold don't mean a thing

Rich people, hear those pockets jingle
Spare change, hear the down-and-outers cry

Money talks, tip-toe up behind you
Steal what they can, off the cuff or on the sly
Money talks
Money talks
