Grammy award winning singer and songwriter JJ Cale, one of the most
versatile musicians of his era who played everything from rock and
roll to blues and jazz, has died after suffering a heart attack, his
official website said on Saturday.
Cale, who was 74, won a Grammy award in 2008 for "The Road to
Escondido," which he recorded with singer-songwriter Eric Clapton.
Born in Oklahoma City, Cale migrated to Los Angeles in the 1960s and
flourished. Rock legend Neil Young once described Cale as the best
electric guitar player he had ever seen other than the late Jimmy
Hendrix.
Cale's official website said he died on Friday night at Scripps
Hospital in La Jolla, California. There were no immediate plans for
memorial services, the website said.
