Cale's influence on Neil Young is lesser known, but in the biography Shakey, he waxed on about the blues-rocker at length, putting him on a pedestal shared only by Hendrix.
"What is it about JJ Cale’s playing? I mean, you could say Eric Clapton’s the guitar god, but... he can't play like JJ," Young told biographer Jimmy McDonough. "JJ’s the one who played all that s--- first... And he doesn’t play very loud, either — I really like that about him. He’s so sensitive. Of all the players I ever heard, it’s gotta be Hendrix and JJ Cale who are the best electric guitar players. JJ’s my peer, but he doesn’t have the business acumen — he doesn’t have the idea of how to deal with the rest of the world that I do. But musically, he’s actually more than my peer, because he’s got that thing. I don’t know what it is."
"JJ’s guitar playing is a huge influence on me," Young continued. "His touch is unspeakable. I am stunned by it."

Somebody on here posted about renting a house near the beach in Hawaii. They sent the kids down to check out the beach while they unpacked. A little while later the kids came back and when asked how it was they said it was nice except for the creepy old man hanging out down there. Turned out to be Neil.
That's my favorite Neil story. Wish I remember who posted it.

Neil kind of reminds me of Ernest Hemingway, because they’re both absolutely brilliant artists that I respect and admire, but they sound like assholes in real life.

My heartfelt advice is that if you love Hemingway’s writing, and I do, don’t read any biographies about him.

I saw Neil five times. One of the most fun was with the Blue Notes. (8/20/88) Lot of irritated people not seeing Old Man, but hey, it was different, and super-tight.
Short, though.Last edited by rideit; 11-19-2020 at 08:33 AM.

Being cool is about not giving a fuck. Bob Dylan once traded an Andy Warhol painting for a sofa because he liked the sofa and he didn't like the paining.
Dylan said Miles was the coolest, but Miles is gone.
