You Sweet Thing

Continuing with an earlier theme of songwriters, JJ Cale’s songs have been covered by such artists as Eric Clapton, Waylon Jennings, Lynyrd Skynyrd, John Mayer, Phish, and Jerry Garcia. Cale died nearly a year ago at age seventy-four. I thought of him when I photographed a transport dog this past week, Magnolia.

I first heard Cale’s song “Magnolia” as covered by a favorite Seventies band, Poco. Cale’s version is shorter and good listening for a mellow Sunday. Here’s to you, sweet Magnolia. May you find a wonderful forever home.
