here's a long and very funny interview with EC & J.J. Cale in german
from the Newspaper "Sueddeutsche Zeitung":

Im Interview: Eric Clapton und J. J. Cale: "Ich bin dran. Also, die
Antwort ist: Nein." Die beiden Musiker gehoeren zu den einflussreichsten
Songschreibern und Gitarristen der Musikgeschichte. Wir trafen beide zu
einem gemeinsamen Interview. Das wurde so lebhaft, dass anschließend
keiner mehr wusste, wer hier eigentlich wen interviewt hat.

to which I respond:

However, Ich bin nicht ein Germaner, bist du ein interpretender?

I tried babelfish, the introductory paragraph from which is below, and then thought perhaps someone could do a better job. It does appear they were both in very jovial mood.



In the interview: Eric Clapton and J. J. Cale


"I am to. Thus, the answer is: No."

The two musicians belong to the most influential Songschreibern and
guitarists of music history. We met both to a common interview. That so
lively that afterwards none knew more, who actually whom interviewt here.

/Vorm Four Seasons in Beverly Hills swings palms
in the solar wind. The two gentlemen, who come into t-Shirt and
Jeans here-walked, one had introduced oneself more quietly.
Clapton has a handshake like a gewichtheber and a rust sheet
metal voice, with whom he could expose the Hollywood to sound Bowl
without micro. The Oklahoma accent harry dean stanton cling
J.J.Cale ("Ya knouuuuu, maeaeaeaeaeaeaen!") leiert by the
November summer like a drunk sea-bird. The two are not gelaunt
over the fact only well, them are proper scratched open before joy,
probably above all that they may sit a few days together in the sun,
before Clapton flies on to the route to Japan. In addition they
brought a straight plate in together, after so many years. The
picture developed on the close Paramount Ranch, before the gates of
Los Angeles./
