Re: Musical Tastes
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.

Re: Musical Tastes
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.

Re: Musical Tastes
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 ;-)

Re: Musical Tastes
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...

Re: Musical Tastes
Okay I have an inspiration. I am going to be meeting a lady who was a former flight attendant and originally from Mississippi so let's hope that all goes well..
