Got To Be Movin On Down This Road

Post by skank-la » 29th Jul, '13, 10:50

We lost one of the great ones yesterday

JJ Cale passed away -he literally lived just down the road in Escondido -his adopted SoCal home

After Midnight, Cocaine, Call Me the Breeze, Crazy Mama -he wrote em all

The good thing about musicians like this -the music will live on for generations to come

I try to take one day at a time but sometimes several days attack me at once!

I saw JJ Cale in Wichita KS in the mid 70's. He was originally from Tulsa OK, which once had a strong music scene. A great songwriter and performer. RIP JJ.
I guess we're not in Kansas anymore.
