J. J. Cale - biography
Grammy nomination for Cale and Clapton..!The Road To Escondido, receives a Grammy nomination in the Best Contemporary Blues Album category.An enigmatic cult figure.Cale himself has long played.An artist, a song, a group of musicians, a producer, and a studio.Cale's personal style has often been described as "laid back", and is characterized by shuffle rhythms, simple chord changes, understated vocals, and clever, incisive lyrics.Live, however, as evidenced on his 2001 Live album and 2006 To Tulsa And Back film, he and his band regularly stretch the songs out and improvise heavily.Cale has often noted that he writes and records songs primarily so that other artists will cover them, but given the texturally sparse but fine craftsmanship on his albums, this sentiment is far from universal.The release of his album, To Tulsa and Back in 2004, his appearance at Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival, and the 2006 release of the film documentary, To Tulsa and Back: On Tour with J.Special Edition (a compilation of hits from previous albums)
