Great CD, reviewer smoke too much wacky, &mistake on listing.......2004-06-17

This CD listed above with song titles such as "Heartbreak Hotel", "Guts", and "Dirty Ass Rock n Roll", is indeed a collection of some classic rock, but the listing states "J.J. Cale" as the artist, as well as several reviews listed refer to this as a good introduction to "J.J. Cale", but not only does J.J. Cale not have an album called "Guts", he never recorded any of the above listed songs. So, before anyone gets too royally confused, ignore those reviews from folks who obviously have been smoking too much wacky weed and stop to realize this is INDEED a CD from Velvet Underground founder JOHN CALE, not J.J. Cale (of "Cocaine" & "After Midnight" fame). Once you get past amazon.com listing the artist wrong and the reviews referring to the wrong artist, as well, you'll find out this is quite an enjoyable set of hard avant-rockers. No rootsy blues & country of J.J. here. It is too bad that such COMPLETELY different artists have such similar names, it creats MUCH confusion.

My favorite JJ album.......2004-05-07

I have every JJ CD and have to say this is my favorite. Matter of fact that's why I'm here on Amazon.com right now - got to buy a new copy because the old one is worn out.

This is great stuff with guitar hooks that scratch that special place and excellent wry lyrics sung in the inimitable JJ way

My introduction to JJ Cale.......2004-04-14

Ill start off by saying that I'm a big Jam fan. I love stuff like The Dead, String Cheese Incident, Phish, Particle, etc. So the other day, I was sitting at my computer listening to some Keller Williams (and if you like jam and havnt heard/heard of him, go listen to some right now) when my dad asked me what I was listening to. I told him, and he said it sounded kind of like this JJ Cale guy he likes. He gave me Travel Log, and I LOVED it. It had the same feel that all my favorite jam bands have. It was down to earth, bluesy, full of amazing riffs solos and harmonies, and packed full of energy and enthusiasm. This is a review by a jam fan, for other jam fands. If you like bluesy jam like leftover salmon, give this one a try. I bet youll like it.

Mid-period sophistication.......2004-04-05

In '94, this was my first exposure to JJ Cale, and I played it hundreds of times. I have since purchased quite a few of his earlier CDs. Though all his work seems fairly even and similar, I think this album has the greatest variety, the most sophisticated mixing of the ensemble players, and the most original and clever lyrics. The production mix is wonderfully layered and complex, yet somehow maintains the feel that it could have been recorded in a smoke filled garage. It has all the traditional sounds but steps outside of the reliance on blues and traditional themes.

JJ not John , Cale.......2004-02-24

If your looking for the drug hazed John Cale from NYC your in the wrong place.....JJ Cale from Tulsa is who this fabulous CD
is put out by.
