J.Cale . rftHpn The trouble with fall record reviews on a college newspaper is that a lot of good summer releases are forgotten. . ' . .,t j. J. Gale's third effort, Okie, Is one notable that deserves a belated review. Gale's music on tnis, as well as on his earlier albums, Naturally ana Really, can best be described as liquid slow-mov-Inq like molasses but as spiffy and fun to play with as mercury. Sometimes this liquid drags a cut down a bit, but nothing on Okis could be described as a loser. . , i.uKe4 In fact, it would be hard to single out the best of the LP. The title cut, which was recorded on caie s back porch, is probably near the top. cajun Moon" and "I'll Be There" are also high rankers. "The Old Man and Me," a nice easy bayou tune, is like a slow version of Doug Kershaw s "Louisiana Man."

' Cale has been around since the '50s, touring with Grand Ole Opry stars and people such as Leon Russel and Delaney and Bonnie. In 1965 he wrote "After Midnight," (Eric Claption's version hit the top ten in 1970) and in 1967 Cale returned to his home in Tulsa. He quit performing except for an occasional stint in a local club, but he wrote a lot and recorded his songs in a small studio he built in his house. Okie is a record that improves witn age, ime good Scotch-or, more in the spirit of the LP itself, i kh mon S B. V z daily JSHMO nobrdSlcQfi 472-2588 ' Open a Free and Easy Checking Account at NBC.
