Album Notes & Community Reviews

Featuring the iconic original version of 'Cocaine', J.J. Cale's 'Troubadour' completely perfected his signature laid-back, remarkably subdued Tulsa Sound. The album is incredibly warm and profoundly mellow, offering highly melodic, distinctly groovy blues-rock vignettes saturated with lazy romanticism and relaxed, drug-fueled swagger.
