Troubadour in Bloomington, MN

Producer
Audie Ashworth
introduced some different instruments, notably vibes and what sound like horns (although none are credited), for a slightly altered sound on
Troubadour
. But
J.J. Cale
's albums are so steeped in his introspective style that they become interchangeable. If you like one of them, chances are you'll want to have them all. This one is notable for introducing
"Cocaine,"
which
Eric Clapton
covered on his
Slowhand
album a year later. ~ William Ruhlmann
