Track:Blind Man Messed Up By Teargas
I have no idea what to say about Ry Cooder that hasn't been said before. I think the man can play any stringed instrument you put into his hands. His career as a "hired gun" in rocknroll is legendary. He's sweetened the sound for a who's who of rock royalty & no names alike.
His own releases...his canon....is a remarkable journey through American music, mining rich veins of the American experience as expressed by myriad artists, known and forgotten, through the years.

Have always been a HUGE Ry guy. He is a gem of the first order!
My fav is off the album "Jammin With Edward" where he plays with the rest of the Stones. Great album. Good reminder DM
Ry Cooder has got such character and style- and I really dig this tune-hadn t heard it
This isn't a bootleg, is it? I know Ry is not a big fan of bootlegs. Anyway, bootleg hate aside, I am a fairly new fan. Absolutely not versed in his entire ouevre, but I don't think I've ever heard anything I don't care for.
I think it was good ole Bruce that hooked me into the collection and the Buena Vista Social Club movie was my first date with my wife, so he's aces over here.
Great track. I'm trying to figure out what he's playing here. A 4-string treble guitar?
You're right he can play anything. Good tune.
