 Rewind ? - don't bother ! February 24, 2008

A disappointing selection of 2nd rate songs & performances; it should have remained in the outakes bin. And here I was, a JJ believer hoping to discover more of his great music - ah well, back to "Guitar Man" I guess !!
Mainstream Addition December 14, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is beautifully played and recorded, and if you're looking for JJ Cale playing slightly more `mainstream` country and western music, you will like this collection of songs from the 70s and 80s. If you are looking for hidden gems that were left out of sessions for albums such as Naturally and Troubadour, then this isn't for you.
 Solid Cale Collection of Outtakes November 27, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This collection of JJ Cale spans over a period of twenty years, but as Cale's style and sounds have not changed very much over the years, the album comes out as a pretty consistent collection. Most tracks are easily as good as many of the songs that were originally released on his regular albums. On the other hand a lot of them do sound like alternate versions of well-known Cale songs.
A good handful of them do stand out on their own. First track that really stirred my attension was Cale's version of Clapton's "Golden Ring". As I never was a big fan of Clapton's I did not know the song beforehand; but Cale's version is really very strong.
Two songs were written by Cale's musical partner for many years, Christine Lakeland. They're both good, though the first "Seven Day Woman" does sound a little like it was abandoned at an unfinished stage.
"Ooh La La" which co-written with Cale, has a great horn arrangement and is definitely one of the stand-outs.
Other favourites are the melodic closing track "It's Good to Be in Austin" and the country waltz "My Baby and Me" - though quite reminiscent of "Rose in the Garden" from "Closer to You".
The album is sure to please any fan of Cale, and though it probably would not be the logical album to start a Cale presention, I don't think it would scare any potential new fans away.
