Personnel: JJ Cale - vocals, guitar, synthesizer James Cruce - drums Tim Drummond - bass Jim Karstein - drums, percussion Christine Lakeland - guitar, vocals (background) Bill Payne - keyboards Don Preston - guitar."On the two albums that preceded Closer To You, Travel-Log (1989) and Number 10 (1992), JJ Cale adopted a more basic musical approach. This album continues the trend. Cale plays a few songs alone (though the overdubbed parts sound remarkably spare), including the title track. Closer To You finds him electronically treating his vocals, a technique that surprisingly makes him sound as down-to-earth as ever." -All Music;Special Attributes:WITH CD, 2 PACK
