Singer-songwriter J.J. Cale taught himself the ropes of sound engineering and built his own recording studio while still living with his parents in Tulsa, OK.

∙ Cale’s biggest hit, 1972’s “Crazy Mama,” peaked at No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart—and might’ve gone higher had he agreed to lip-sync it on American Bandstand.
