This week we take a listen to the 1971 debut LP by J.J. Cale Naturally. Though not a household name, J.J. Cale (or Johnny Cale as he was originally known) was a songwriter, singer, engineer, and guitarist of great renown among his fellow musicians. He has penned songs made famous by other artists (Lynyrd Skynyrd, Poco, and, most famously Eric Clapton) and he may well be one of the most influential guitarist in rock.  A pillar if the "Tulsa Sound" (whatever that is), his laid back approach and his guitar style has inspired many a great axe man. Some contend that it has even been outright copied by others (albeit, subconsciously -- hello, Mark Knopfler). This, his debut, contains some of his best-known tunes, such as "They Call Me The Breeze", "After Midnight", and "Magnolia". Find out what makes this artist and this album so influential.
