Ry Cooder - 'Acoustic Performance Radio Ranch 12-12-1972' (2015)

An 'unofficial' release, but a nice recording of a terrific #RyCooder solo acoustic radio show. Many classic #Cooder songs and interpretations in an intimate atmosphere.

Ry Cooder - 'The Prodigal Son' (2018)

#RyCooder's latest solo album contains more gospel and bluegrass, along with some Tex-Mex. A few own compositions, but the emphasis is on traditionals and covers, that get the unmistakable #Cooder twist.

Ry Cooder - 'Tresspass' (Original Motion Picture Score) (1993) (2024 remaster)

This #RyCooder film score is even darker. Brooding, ominous and dirty. Thank the lawd for that #Cooder slide guitar.

Ry Cooder - 'Crossroads (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)' (1986) (2014 remaster)

Another amazing #RyCooder film score. Sadly, the guitar duet with devil #SteveVai isn't on it, but there's lots of great music and #Cooder blues slide to enjoy.

Ry Cooder - 'Alamo Bay' (1985) (2014 remaster)

Another fine film score by #RyCooder. More Tex-Mex and great #Cooder acoustic slide guitar.

Ry Cooder - 'The Long Riders (Original Sound Track)' (1980) (2014 remaster)

Marvellous film score by #RyCooder with lots of Tex-Mex. Never seen the film, but the music paints pictures in my fantasy. Another fine #Cooder album.

Ry Cooder - 'The Soundtracks - The Border / Alamo Bay' (1982) (1985) (2006 remaster)

Two outstanding film scores by #RyCooder, featuring #FlacoJimenez, #JohnHiatt, #DavidLindley, #FreddyFender, many others and of course #Cooder's slide guitar.

Ry Cooder - 'Music By Ry Cooder' (2cd) (1995)

Beautiful collection of #RyCooder's movie soundtrack music. #Cooder's scores are mostly subdued and moody with sparse instrumentation, but always appropriate. Some marvellous music going on...

Ry Cooder - 'Get Rhythm' (cd single) (1988)

The tremendous rocking title track of #RyCooder's 1987 album, plus an outtake and two songs from earlier #Cooder albums, including the fun version of '634-5789'.

Ry Cooder - 'Get Rhythm' (1987) (2013)

#RyCooder's excellent album, featuring #FlacoJiménez, #VanDykeParks & #HarryDeanStanton. Mostly covers (#JohnnyCash, #ChuckBerry, #ElvisPresley), as always getting the true #Cooder twist. Another gem.
