Song Saturday #2


JJ Cale & Leon Russell. Two great writers whose names arent as famous as their songs are. Eric Clapton's hits ''Cocaine'' & ''After Midnight'' are Cale songs. Lynyrd Skynyrd's ''Same Old Blues'' & ''Call Me the Breeze'' are also Cale songs. ''A Song For You'' made famous by Willie Nelson is Russell's. Russell is also behind Joe Cocker's best work, as well as being a studio musician on lots of famous records from The Beach Boys to The Byrds.
