Het was een mooi programma De 2 Meter sessies van Jan Douwe Kroeske.Het leverde prachtig beelden en een en rits prachtige cd,s.op. In deze show wordt sinds 1987 bekende en nieuwe artiesten de
mogelijkheid geboden om in een studio-omgeving een inkijk in hun liedjes
te geven en deze regelmatig tot een akoestische basis terug te brengen. In de afgelopen jaren werden meer dan duizend sessies opgenomen, met onder andere the Black Crows .Counting Crows, Radiohead, Foo Fighters, REM, Bush, Anouk, Nirvana, Milow, Crowded House, Venice, K's Choice, Joe Cocker, De Dijk, Sepultura, Golden Earring en Coldplay.Naast het optreden van The Black Crows was het optreden van JJ.Cale wat mij betreft ook zeker een van de hoogtepunten.
Het handelsmerk van Cale is het zogenaamde laid back-zingen,waar dit optreden zeker een voorbeeld van is.
Dit is nét na de tel inzetten. Daarnaast is Cale, door zijn diensttijd
bij de luchtmacht, handig met elektronica waardoor hij zijn eigen muziek
mee produceert en zijn opnamen een specifieke sound krijgen. Onderdeel
hiervan zijn het dubben van de zang en een lome, ingetogen sfeer.
Devil In Disguise
De dame in de band is Christine Lakeland ,de gitariste/zangeres speelt op bijna alle albums van JJ Cale mee van sinds einde jaren 70’s.Ze zat in de studio en trad op o.a met Tanya Tucker, Hoyt Axton, Merle Haggard en Leon Russell.

Gaucho is the seventh studio album by the American rock band Steely Dan, released by MCA Records on November 21, 1980. "Hey Nineteen"
According to one reviewer's interpretation, the song "was about a middle-aged man's disappointment with a young lover".
The lyrics are about an aging hipster attempting to pick up a girl who is so young that she does not recognize "'Retha Franklin" playing on the stereo. The song closes with the ambiguous line, "The Cuervo Gold, the fine Colombian, make tonight a wonderful thing," leaving the listener to decide whether the narrator is consuming tequila and drugs with the love interest, or if he is in fact alone........

After having seen 8 or 9 concerts by the band, it was now the turn of Tivoli / Vredenburg, one of my favorite venues.
