872.0. "JJ Cale on CD" by JANUS::HUDSON (William Hudson, REO-G/F2 DTN 830-3101) Fri Aug 21 1987 06:22

    Anyone have any recommedations for/experiences of JJ Cale on CD?
    I've borrowed cassettes from a local library (not doing CD's yet!)
    and have liked most of what I've heard, but some of the recordings
    are fairly old and I'd be nervous of taking pot luck on the CD's.

872.1"Troubador" is AvailableAQUA::ROSTAre we having fun yet?Fri Aug 21 1987 09:448
    
    The only one I've seen so far is "Troubador", and the good news
    is that is in Polygram's mid-line series (only $10).
    
    If "Special Edition", a greatest hits package is out, I would recommend
    that one as a first purchase....anyone seen it yet?
    
    
872.2JJ Cale - Special EditionVIDEO::WELCHFri Aug 21 1987 14:3811
    I have JJ Cale - Special Edition on CD.  The recording is quite
    good and the songs span most of his best.  BTW: Other JJ Cale CD's
    that are available are:
    			Grashopper.
    			J.J #8
    			Shades
    			Troubador
    I believe that all are distributed by Polygram
    
    Bob.
    
872.3.2 Is Definitely Good NewsAQUA::ROSTAre we having fun yet?Fri Aug 21 1987 14:439
    
    BTW, all of the JJ Cale albums before the four listed in .2 came
    out on Shelter records, which has had a schizoid
    existence...distributed at various times by Capitol, ABC and MCA
    so who knows who owns the masters.  I wouldn't expect to see any
    of that stuff out any time soon.
    
    I'm surprised Polygram has released all his stuff for them on CD,
    I didn't think he sold all that well.
