  • GRASSHOPPER was released in 1982 and is J.J. Cale's seventh album. There are 13 Cale originals and one song by Roger Tillison, "One Step Ahead of the Blues." Though Cale sticks to a less-is-more approach, there are subtle shadings of the musical leanings that would creep into his work in the years the followed. While most numbers are constructed upon supple guitar-bass-drums rhythmic beds, "You Keep Me Hangin' On" is built around a piano, and "Dr. Jive" features a vibraphone. J.J. Cale's songs are deceptively constructed--they may sound easy to play, but they're certainly not. The songs' rolling rhythms are especially compelling. J.J. Cale found his sound early on and has not strayed far from it, making one fine album after another; GRASSHOPPER is yet another chapter.
