J.J. Cale is perhaps best known for penning hits for Eric Clapton, including “Cocaine” and “Midnight Hour”, yet he’s also an accomplished and extremely talented songwriter and guitarist. While no one ever declared, “Cale is God”, Clapton clearly has always thought highly of him, and in 2006, the Clapton/Cale mutual admiration society finally made its way into the studio. The result is 14 songs’ worth of the relaxed blues hybrid that Cale built his career around and that earned Clapton the nickname ‘”Slowhand”. The duo produced all the tracks and wrote the majority of them, with some help from guests such as Taj Mahal, Derek Trucks, the late Billy Preston, and John Mayer, who wrote the song “Hard to Thrill” for the album. THE ROAD TO ESCONDIDO is a mellow musical good time between friends, and for fans of the two musicians, it’s a front-row seat to a rare and scintillating collaboration.
