Search - J.J. Cale :: The Ultimate Collection

Notorious for his laid-back, rootsy style, J.J. Cale (b. Jean Jacques Cale) is best-known for writing 'After Midnight' and 'Cocaine', songs that Eric Clapton later made into hits. But Cale's influence wasn't only through songwriting -- his distinctly loping sense of rhythm and shuffling boogie became the blueprint for the adult-oriented roots-rock of Clapton and Mark Knopfler, among others. This Ultimate 3-disc collection has been digitally remastered and comes packaged in a gate fold digipak. Universal. 2005.
