J.J. Cale -- Naturally
Up Until to a couple years ago I had no clue who this guy was, with the exception of having song credits on Eric Clapton records, which is the main reason why I picked this one up, After Midnight. Naturally is one smooth, laid back, bluesy album reminiscent of Dr. John and Mayall's Bluesbreakers. His style is primarily known as the Tusla sound. The record kicks off with killer track, Call Me The Breeze, featuring a drum machine, which for 70's Rock music was basically unheard of. Side one closes with a god awful country tune, Clyde, not that it's all that bad, but the fiddle solos were driving me up the wall! The rest follows suit, good ol' style super laid back Americana in J.J. Cale's Naturally talented brand of Rock 'n' Blues.
