Eric Clapton has often stated that JJ Cale is one of the single most important figures in rock history, a sentiment echoed by many of his fellow musicians. Cale's influence on Clapton and many of today's artists cannot be overstated. To honor JJ's legacy, a year after his passing, Clapton, along with a group of like-minded friends and musicians, is releasing Eric Clapton & Friends: The Breeze, An Appreciation of JJ Cale. With performances by Clapton, Mark Knopfler, John Mayer, Willie Nelson, Tom Petty, Derek Trucks, Don White and others, the album features 16 beloved JJ Cale Songs and is named for the 1972 single "Call Me The Breeze."
Lyrics
They call me the breeze
I keep rollin' down the road
They call me the breeze
I keep rollin' down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I ain't carrying me no load
Ain't no change in the weather
Ain't no change in me
Ain't no change in the weather
Ain't no change in me
I ain't hiding from nobody
Ain't nobody hiding from me
I got that green light babe
I got to be movin' on
I got that green light babe
I got to be movin' on
I might go out to California
Might go down to Georgia
I don't know
