Album Notes & Community Reviews

Establishing the effortlessly laid-back, incredibly groovy Tulsa Sound, J.J. Cale's debut album is a miraculously understated blues-rock classic. 'Naturally' is wonderfully warm and deeply mellow, delivering fiercely rhythmic, highly melodic roots rock hits like 'After Midnight' and 'Call Me the Breeze' with a beautifully soothing, remarkably playful swagger.
