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

If you check who wrote songs like Cocaine, Somebody call for a Doctor, I think I sick., after Midnight its JJ Cayle He was a great song writer and singer. Clyde play's Electric Bass is my favorite. Bought my first album by him in 1967 I think.

Call Me the Breeze. Tulsa Time Crazy Mama. Cocaine. Love him. Solid career. Clapton would tell you he's a major dude, but not enough momnest to garner attention of the Hall. Like his latst Cd alot: To Tulsa and Back.

If I'm wound up, I plop in "Living on Tulsa Time" and chill. Not bad for a "Frisco" punk rocker.
