11:05 Marty Duda's Artist of the Week: JJ Cale             

Oklahoma musician JJ Cale passed away last weekend at age 74. The laid-back singer-songwriter is known for his contribution to the 'Tulsa Sound', a sound built more on the groove than anything else. Although he only had one hit of his own – 1971's 'Crazy Mama' – Cale wrote several other songs popularised by the likes of Eric Clapton ('After Midnight', 'Cocaine') and Lynyrd Skynyrd ('Call Me The Breeze'). JJ Cale quietly carved out a musical niche with his own brand of slow-cookin' Southern boogie. His most recent album was 2009s Roll On.
