Free Music Notes for Rewind: The Unreleased Recordings
Free Music Review: JJ Cale is the Master of Mellow!
Hit: 5 Stars
If you are between 20 and 70 years of age AND like music with a pulse- a strong back-beat- or blues, then you HAVE to listen to JJ Cale. Give him a try. You'll be pleasantly surprised! I used to play a lot of Jimmy Buffett for his laid-back qualities and strong story telling talents. Then I discovered Cale.
No, he doesn't have the story telling ability of Buffett, but his talents are amazing. His music is mellow rock, not for the Hip Hoppers out there, but more for the folks that want less stress in their lives. Cale is the one who wrote "After Midnight"- and sold it to Eric Clapton. That's what got him noticed for the first time. This was followed by "They Call Me the Breeze"- covered by Leonyrd Skynyrd. Then "Cocaine"- (an anti-drug song) covered by Clapton. Many of his tunes are timeless, covered by more modern bands looking for better writing.There's a rumor that Cale was offered the (multi) million dollar tour contract after he wrote "After Midnight" but turned it down, saying "Why tour, if they already know my songs?" Gotta admire someone with no greed in him. Rare in the music biz!
Both of my children, now grown, listen to a lot of Cale, as his music just fits with folks that want mellow blues or rock, but simply aren't "ready" for music that doesn't rock their soul, or make their feet move. "Naturally"- one of Cale's earliest albums, is still on my Top 10 albums of all time. Give it a try. You'll see why. Warning: Cale's music is quite addictive. You'll want ALL his albums, as I have.
If you're not listening to JJ Cale- get a pulse!
Rewind: The Unreleased Recordings Poster
Time Life is very proud to present Rewind: Unreleased Recordings, a trove of previously unreleased songs recorded by American music icon J.J. Cale during his early and most influential years. Featuring vintage tracks from Cale?s legendary tenures at Shelter Records and Mercury Records, Rewind is a remarkable collection that exemplifies J.J. Cale?s distinctive, legendary style: laid-back guitar and almost whispered vocals with influences of rock ?n? roll, country, blues and jazz. Not only are Rewind?s eight Cale-penned songs a time capsule of musical treasures, he also personally selected several covers to include. It?s extremely rare for Cale to record another songwriter?s material, making these songs particularly extraordinary. He puts his personal spin on Eric Clapton?s Golden Ring, Leon Russell?s My Cricket, Waylon Jennings? Waymore?s Blues and Randy Newman?s Rollin?.If musicians were paid by their influence instead of record sales, J.J. Cale could have retired a few decades ago. Without his lazy, loping, swamp rumble and subtle, lyrical style that's both picturesque and somewhat vague, neither Eric Clapton or Mark Knopfler would have had the kind of solo careers they have achieved. Despite numerous Cale hits collections on the market, this is the first time his vaults have been opened, revealing 14 previously unreleased tracks from his prolific Shelter and Mercury years. While this is clearly geared towards the Cale fan who already owns his 13 existing albums, these aren't unfinished leftovers or musty demos. Most interesting to longtime followers are a handful of covers from Clapton, Leon Russell, Waylon Jennings, and a beautiful version of Randy Newman?s "Rollin'." Some tunes sound suspiciously like other, more popular ones ("Lawdy Mama" is but a speeded up "Call Me the Breeze"), but even these are worth hearing for Cale's committed performance. "Blue Sunday" adds pedal steel, strings, and even faint horns to the mix, while the female vocals and more prominent brass on "Ooh La La" urge the song into undiscovered classic territory. The 14 tracks clock in at just under 40 minutes, leaving the listener wanting more and wondering if Cale and his producers will excavate another batch for volume two. --Hal Horowitz
