Only if they are dead and gone,we remember that we are badly missing them...
While Cale never got superstar status it was Mark Knopfler and the Dire Straits, who got most commercial success by copying the way J.J. played the guitar.
Eric Clapton covered some Cale songs, but Dire Straits never did.
"Thanks to Eric cutting my songs, it's kept me from having to get a job as a taxi driver."
J.J.Cale bootlegs are very rare,so I decided to upload this well-known 1975 show from the early days of his career.
The Sausalito show involves many songs from the "Naturally" album,one of my all time favourites.
Cool and groovy...

From Discogs - This recording comes from an FM radio broadcast of Cale's New Year's Eve performance in 1975, at Cain's Ballroom in the town in which he was raised, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Featuring a majestic set of J.J. Cale favorites taken from the albums he had released by this juncture in his career, along with a couple of cuts which at the time had yet to grace a J.J. studio record, all performed in an extended format, radically different from the album versions. This recording illustrates perfectly where J.J. Cale was musically by the end of 1975 and shows the direction in which he was moving for the next phase of his marvelous career.

ReplyDeleteA rougher rocking sound than the later laid back JJ with extended and very different tracks to those on his records.
A fantastic share - many thanks.
Can a reup be possible please thx
ReplyDelete@jazzcatflyk...I have this show but I have it as "Live Cain's Ballroom" as noted by Feelgood in a comment made back in 2013. I can post that one if you want.
Delete@jazzcatflyk - Updated!
DeleteOne of my absolute J.J. Cale favourites.Cains Ballroom New Year Eve 1975...Beautiful show!
ReplyDeleteBootleggers often falsely attribute shows. There's a Petty/Dylan gray-market CD entitled "KSAN FM Radio Broadcast 1986." Well, KSAN stopped being a "rock" station in 1980, the attribution is false. Similarly....the KSAN "live from the Record Plant in Sausalito" broadcasts were a regular feature from 1973 to 1976 so it's likely they're trying to piggyback on that recognition.
ReplyDeleteWhat I can tell you that's new is newspapers.com confirms Tulsa. The Tulsa World reports that on December 31, 1975, "Special events this year include the city's first appearance in five years of Tulsa's J.J. Cale, internationally known Shelter Records recording star. Cale will perform with Playboy Records' Debbie Campbell from 9 p.m. until 3:00 a.m. at Cain's Ballroom where patrons will pay $7.50 per person for admittance. The show will be recorded for a live album to be released this year on Shelter Records."
No such LP was ever released.
Thanks for the additional detective work Drafty!
DeleteGreat quality set. Love me some J.J. this is cooking (on an open campfire) and no mistake! Thanks voodoo!
ReplyDeleteAppreciate the share v-chile. This guy was so cool and not even Knopfler could knock him off his podium. Naturally. Cheers from Down Under
ReplyDeleteThanks for this one. Nice sound quality. Burning now to CD for maximum pleasure and will be played LOUD.
