First time I`d heard him. Sounds a LOT like Tom Petty.

This Day in Rock

John Weldon "J. J." Cale[1] (December 5, 1938 – July 26, 2013) was an American guitarist, singer, songwriter and sound engineer. Though he avoided the limelight,[2] his influence as a musical artist has been acknowledged by figures such as Mark Knopfler, Neil Young, Waylon Jennings, and Eric Clapton, who described him as "one of the most important artists in the history of rock".[3] He is one of the originators of the Tulsa sound, a loose genre drawing on blues, rockabilly, country, and jazz.

I hear Cale`s influence on the first track. Marcy Levy sings on both these tunes, the latter being one of my all time EC favorites.

I've got a couple of friends who like the One Hit Wonders..
Here's one (or is it? )



But wait..The Addrisi Brother wrote this huge hit in 1966..Does is count?

I can't believe I missed this guy, so far
Graham Gouldman, when just a young guy, wrote the following hits:
Heart Full of Soul
For Your Love
Look through any Window
No Milk Today
Listen People
... and this huge hit for The Hollies, featuring Tony Banks, Graham Nash, and the great Allan Clarke on lead vocals....



Later , in the 70's Gouldman formed the art /pop group 10 CC,...and we'll see if we can get Jeff N. back in here with this one ;-)

Got back from the Sierra Nevada mountains on the 1st, and it's rained just about every day..What happened to the SW Mega-drought?

Maybe...
