	Boomer's Story Audiophile - LP - MFSL 1-405 Sealed 2017 Gatefold, Original Master Recording, GAIN 2™ Ultra Analog, 180gm Limited Edition Of 3000. "Boomer's Story, Ry Cooder's Third Record, Continues His Archeological Dig Through Music's Familiar And Forgotten Past. As Was The Case With His Previous Recordings, He Not Only Looks To The Masters -- Including Blues Legend Sleepy John Estes, Songwriter Dan Penn (Both Of Whom Appear Here) And The Great Skip James -- For Material, But To Lost And Neglected Pieces Of American Folk And Blues, As Well. Cooder Adds The Traditional Title-track, Which Opens The Album, And Lawrence Wilson's "Crow Black Chicken," Which Dates Back To The Late 1920s, To This Collection Of Discoveries -- Both Of Which Are Handled With Just The Right Balance Of Personality And Reverence. Elsewhere, He Injects A Dark Irony Into The Jingoistic "Rally 'Round The Flag," With Its Slow, Mournful Piano (Played By Randy Newman) And Slide Guitar, While The Joseph Spence-Style Guitar Arrangement Of The World War II Standard "Comin' In On A Wing And A Prayer" Has A Sense Of Hope And Conviction. Often Criticized For Possessing A Less Than Commanding Voice, Cooder Steps Back From The Microphone For Four Of The Album's Ten Tracks -- Three Instrumentals And One Featuring Sleepy John Estes On His Own "President Kennedy." And While All Of The Instrumentals Presented Here Are Fine Renditions Of Great Tunes, It's "Dark End Of The Street" Which Truly Stands Out. Here, Cooder Realizes That The Only Thing In His Arsenal That Can Do Justice To James Carr's Definitive Version Is His Own Remorseful Slide Guitar. Without Uttering A Single Lyric, He's Able To Convey The Shame And Deep Regret Of The Dan Penn/Chips Moman Classic. Thanks To Moments Like This, Along With Cooder's Consistently Strong Choice Of Material And Brilliant Guitar Work, Boomer's Story -- Less Eccentric Than His First, And Less Eclectic Than Into The Purple Valley -- Ranks Among His Best Work."

	Bop Til You Drop New - LP - BSK 3358 Sealed 1979 Original. Comes In Original Mailer From Label, With A Warner Bros. Letter & A Card That Provides Info About The Records Digital Dramatics. Small Punch Out Hole. "Following his conceptual 1978 release, Jazz, Ry Cooder returned the next year with the R&B/soul-based Bop Till You Drop. The first major-label, digitally recorded album, Bop is a nice set of moderately known to obscure tunes from the '50s and '60s (along with a Cooder/Tim Drummond original) that doesn't always live up to its promise. Cooder and his excellent band, which includes the rhythm section of Tim Drummond and Jim Keltner along with guitarist David Lindley, understand the material and are more than capable of laying down a decent groove, but something must have gotten lost in translation from what was played to what came across on the recording. There's a thinness to the tracks that undermines the performances, which according to Cooder is due to the digital recording. If you check out the live version of Bop Till You Drop's opener, "Little Sister," from the No Nukes record (using the same band), you can see what surely could have been. Still, Bop is worthwhile given Cooder's penchant for choosing great tunes, as well as the tight performances, brilliant guitar work, and a handful of great guest vocalists (including Chaka Khan). A few of the highlights include his arrangement of the early-'60s Elvis hit "Little Sister," the soulful "The Very Thing That Makes You Rich (Makes Me Poor)," an instrumental take on Ike & Tina Turner's "I Think It's Gonna Work Out Fine," and "I Can't Win," featuring Cooder's longtime cohort Bobby King on lead vocal."

Even More Than Usual, Cooder Refuses To Recognize Borders -- Geographical Or Musical -- Presenting "Stand By Me" As A Gospel Song With A Norteño Arrangement, Or Giving The Jim Reeves Country-Pop Classic, "He'll Have To Go," A Bolero Rhythm, Featuring The Interplay Of Flaco Jimenez's Accordion And Pat Rizzo's Alto Sax. Elsewhere, He Teams With A Pair Of Hawaiian Greats -- Steel Guitarist And Singer Gabby Pahinui And Slack Key Guitar Master Atta Isaacs -- On The Hank Snow Hit "Yellow Roses" And The Beautiful Instrumental "Chloe." If Cooder's Approach To The Music Is Stylistically Diverse, His Choice Of Material Certainly Follows Suit. Bookended By A Couple Of Leadbelly Compositions, Chicken Skin Music Sports A Collection Of Songs Ranging From The Aforementioned Tracks To The Charming Old Minstrel/Medicine Show Number "I Got Mine" And The Syncopated R&B Of "Smack Dab In The Middle." Also Included Is Appalachian Songwriter Blind Alfred Reed's "Always Lift Him Up," Complete With A Hawaiian Gospel Tune, "Kanaka Wai Wai," Woven Into The Instrumental Section. As He Explains In The Album's Liner Notes, Cooder Understands The Connection Between These Seemingly Disparate Styles. This Is Not Merely Eclecticism For Its Own Sake.

	Election Special New - LP - 531159 Factory Sealed, Out Of Print 2012 180gm HQ With Free CD Of The Complete Album. “Using American Traditional Musics -- Raw Blues, Folk, And Roots Rock -- Cooder's Songs Express What He Considers To Be, As Both An Artist And A Pissed-Off Citizen, The High-Stakes Historical Gamble Of The 2012 Presidential And Congressional Contest. He Wrote And Recorded This Album As A Witness To The Era. Other Than Drums (Played By His Son Joachim) And Some Backing Vocals, Cooder Plays Everything Here. He Uses Foreboding Acoustic Blues In "Mutt Romney Blues" (Written From The Point Of View Of The Candidate Mitt Romney's Dog). The More Poignant "Brother Is Gone" Is At First Blush A Seemingly Heart-Wrenching Folk Tale Fueled By Cooder's Mandolin. Yet It Slowly And Purposely Relates A Deal-With-The-Devil Fantasy About Conservatives Charles And David Koch. It's Among The Finest Songs He's Written. But Cooder Rocks Up His Anger Too: "Guantanamo" Is A Raucous Barroom Strut. "Cold Cold Feeling" Is A Deep, Slow Garage Blues That's Chilling In Its Effectiveness. His Screed Is A Link In A Chain Of Political Blues Tunes That Date Back To The Delta. "Going To Tampa" Is A Cut-Time String Band Country Tune. It's A Farce About The 2012 Republican National Convention As Hijacked By The Tea Party. He Accuses Both Of Outright Racism And Social Engineering, With Scathing Humor. The Album's Finest Cut Is The Dark, Delta-Style Electric Blues Of "Kool-Aid," Which Recalls Junior Kimbrough Musically. Sure Enough, Because Of Its Soapbox Style, Election Special Is The Most Overtly Political Album Of Cooder's Career. As Such, It Serves Two Purposes: One Is That It Is The Most Organic Record He's Issued In Almost Two Decades; And, More Importantly, It Restores Topical Protest Music To A Bona Fide Place In American Cultural Life.” Thom Jurek, AMG. more
	Get Rhythm New - LP - 25639 Sealed 1987 Original Featuring Van Dyke Parks, Flaco Jimenez, Harry Dean Stanton-Guest Vocals And Others. Clean Cut Out Hole & Small Crease Mark. "The Musician's Musician." "The Master Of The Eclectic." There Are Probably A Dozen More Titles By Which This "Guitar Player" Is Known. To Even Refer To Him As A Guitar Player Is Probably A Gross Mislabeling Of This Musician. He Defies Any Sort Of Categorization; This Is His Greatest Strength And For Some His Weakness. The Theme For These Nine Cuts Is Rhythm Of All Different Ilk. I Won't Even Give The Parameters Because He Seems To Have None. I Wondered How Many Different Instruments He Played On This Album (I Thought I Counted Five Different Types Of Guitar); It Only Says Guitar And Vocal For His Credits. Listen To His Version Of "All Shook Up," More Bop And Rhythm Than Elvis Could Put Into Four Of His Songs. It Seems Musicians Line Up To Play With Him, And They Feel He Did Them A Favor By Letting Them Play On His Albums. He Always Gives Them Plenty Of Space To Do What They Do. This LP Will Make The Dead Start Tapping Their Toes.” Bob Gottlieb, All Music Guide. more

The main focus of the music here is on the era of the Dust Bowl, and what was happening in America at the time, socially and musically. Songs by Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly, and a variety of others show Cooder's encyclopedic knowledge of the music of this time, combined with an instinctive feel for the songs. 'Phenomenal' is the descriptive word to describe his playing, whether it is on guitar, Hawaiian "slack key" guitar, mandolin, or the more arcane instruments he has found.

The Main Focus Of The Music Here Is On The Era Of The Dust Bowl, And What Was Happening In America At The Time, Socially And Musically. Songs By Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly, And A Variety Of Others Show Cooder's Encyclopedic Knowledge Of The Music Of This Time, Combined With An Instinctive Feel For The Songs. 'Phenomenal' Is The Descriptive Word To Describe His Playing, Whether It Is On Guitar, Hawaiian "Slack Key" Guitar, Mandolin, Or The More Arcane Instruments He Has Found. This Is A Must For Those Who Love Instrumental Virtuosity, Authentic Re-Workings Of An Era, Or Just Plain Good Music." Bob Gottlieb. more

	Jazz Used - LP - BSK 3197 1978 Test Pressing Of A Holy Grail Audiophile Record. Comes In A Plain White Jacket With Cover Sheet. As Close As It Gets To The Sound Of The Master Tape. “Released In 1978, Jazz Seems To Be His First Conscious Attempt At A Concept Album, In The Historical Sense. Here He Pays Homage To Some Of The Early Tunes And Masters Of Jazz, Ranging From The Late 1800s Through The "Coon Songs" Of The Early Part Of The Next Century, To The Ragtime And "Spanish" Music Of Jelly Roll Morton, And The Sophistication Of Cornetist Bix Beiderbecke. The Only Living Artist (At The Time Of Release) Who's Represented Here Is The Great Bahamian Guitarist Joseph Spence, Who Recorded From The '50s Through The '80s, And Whose Syncopated Style Was Extremely Influential In Cooder's Own Development As A Guitarist. Spence's Sacred Songs Are Presented Here In String And Brass Band Arrangements That Emphasize The Caribbean Connection Between His Music And Morton's Habaniera Pieces. The Complexity Of The Material On Jazz, As Well As The Arrangements By Joseph Byrd, Dictate That This Is Cooder's Most Polished And Orchestrated Effort To Date.” Brent Hartenbach, All Music Guide. more

	Paradise And Lunch Audiophile - Used - MFSL 1-449 2017 180gm Original Master Recording Reissue. Pressed At RTI And Strictly Limited To 3,000 Gold Foil Numbered Copies. "Paradise and Lunch" is the fourth studio album by American guitarist and songwriter Ry Cooder, released in 1974.

In the years since its release, "Paradise and Lunch" has been recognized as a landmark album in Cooder's career, as well as a classic of American roots music.

	Paris, Texas - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Used Import - 7599-25270-1 2005 180gm Deluxe Reissue LE #1123, Taken From The Original Mastertapes. Features Ry Cooder, Jim Dickinson And David Lindley. One Of Our Favorite Soundtracks With Outstanding Sound! The Paris, Texas - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Ry Cooder is a masterful collection of music that perfectly captures the mood and atmosphere of the iconic film by Wim Wenders. The soundtrack features 14 tracks that range from hauntingly beautiful instrumentals to soulful blues and rootsy folk songs. What really sets this soundtrack apart from others is the way Cooder incorporates ambient sounds and field recordings into the music. From the sound of a train whistle to the hum of a neon sign, these subtle touches add a layer of depth and authenticity to the music that perfectly reflects the film's themes of alienation and disconnectedness. In addition to its artistic merit, the Paris, Texas - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is also a must-have for any serious vinyl collector. The album was originally released in 1985 and has since become a highly sought-after collectible due to its rarity and the quality of the pressing. The vinyl is thick and heavy, and the sound quality is superb. With its evocative music and unique blend of ambient sounds, this soundtrack is a true treasure for anyone who loves great music and great movies. more

With Brilliant, Woody Guthrie-Like Directness And A Healthy Dollop Of Satire, Cooder's Lyrics Address The Often-Sorry State Of Our Domestic Affairs: The Bank Bailout, The Anti-Immigration Movement, The Ever-Growing Gap Between Rich And Poor, And The Never-Ending War In The Middle East And Its Devastating Physical And Emotional Toll On Young Soldiers. more

	Ry Cooder Audiophile - New - RS 6402 Sealed 2021 180gm All-Analogue Audiophile Reissue From Speakers Corner. German Import. "Already A Seasoned Music Business Veteran At The Age Of 22, Ry Cooder Stepped Out From Behind The Shadows Of The Likes Of Jackie Deshannon, Taj Mahal, The Rolling Stones, And Captain Beefheart, Signing His Own Deal With Warner Brothers Records In 1969. Released The Following Year, Cooder's Eponymous Debut Creates An Intriguing Fusion Of Blues, Folk, Rock & Roll, And Pop, Filtered Through His Own Intricate, Syncopated Guitar; Van Dyke Parks And Lenny Waronker's Idiosyncratic Production; And Parks And Kirby Johnson's String Arrangements. And While He's Still Finding His Feet As A Singer, Cooder Puts This Unique Blend Across With A Combination Of Terrific Songs, Virtuosic Playing, And Quirky, Yet Imaginative, Arrangements. For Material, Cooder, The Son Of Folklorist Parents, Unearths Ten Gems -- Spanning Six Decades Dating Back To The 1920s -- By Legends Such As Woody Guthrie, Blind Blake, Sleepy John Estes, And Leadbelly, As Well As A Current Randy Newman Composition. Still, As Great As His Outside Choices Are, It's The Exuberant Charm Of His Own Instrumental "Available Space" That Nearly Steals The Show. Its Joyful Interplay Between Cooder's Slide, Van Dyke Parks' Music Hall Piano, And The Street-Corner Drumming Creates A Piece That Is Both Loose And Sophisticated. If "Available Space" Is The Record's Most Playful Moment, Its Closer, "Dark Is The Night," Is The Converse, With Cooder's Stark, Acoustic Slide Extracting Every Ounce Of Torment From Blind Willie Johnson's Mournful Masterpiece. Some Of The Eccentric Arrangements May Prove To Be A Bit Much For Both Purists And Pop Audiences Alike, But Still, Cooder's Need To Stretch, Tempered With A Reverence For The Past, Helps To Create A Completely Original Work That Should Reward Adventurous Listeners."

	Show Time New - LP - BS 3059 Sealed 1977 Original. COH. “Following The Odd, But Entertaining Hawaiian, Southwestern Mix Of Chicken Skin Music, Ry Cooder Hit The Road With A Group Of Tex-Mex Musicians Led By The Great Accordionist Flaco Jiminez. To Make Things Even More Interesting, He Also Included Three Soul- And Gospel-Based Backup Singers In The Lineup (Two Of Whom Had Appeared On Chicken Skin Music). Recorded In December Of 1976, Over A Span Of Two Nights In San Francisco, Show Time Documents These Shows By Cooder And His "Chicken Skin Revue." And While Cooder's Guitar -- Along With His Usual Eclectic Assortment Of Songs -- Is The Star Of The Show, Each Of The Principles Has His Chance To Shine Throughout The Evening. Terry Evans, Bobby King, And Eldridge King's Soulful Rendition Of "The Dark End Of The Street," As Well As The Lovely "Volver, Volver," Which Features Jiminez, Are A Couple Of The Highlights. Cooder's Selection Of Material Here Is As Eclectic As Ever, But Jiminez And The Band Stay With Him Every Step Of The Way. They Seem Equally At Home With The R&B Of "Smack Dab In The Middle" As They Do With The Jiminez Instrumental "Viva Seguin," Which Leads Into A Tex-Mex Reworking Of Woody Guthrie's "Do Re Mi." Still, As Good As The Fit May Be Between Leader And Band, It's The Negro Spiritual, "Jesus On The Mainline," Stripped Down To Just Four Voices And Cooder's Remarkable Bottleneck, That's The Real Showstopper Here.” Brett Hartenbach, AMG. more

	The Prodigal Son New Import - FAN00236 Sealed 2018 Original. "After Ry Cooder Issued 2012's Biting Election Special With Its Indictments Of The Gop, Mitt Romney, And The Koch Brothers In A Meld Of Sounds That Included Folk, Blues, And Roots Rock, Fans Wondered Where He'd Go Next. Prodigal Son, His Debut Album For Fantasy, Takes Him Back To The Beginning When He Recorded Old Blues, Gospel, Folk, And Swing Tunes That Reflected The Musical Past As Illumination For The Historical Present. Co-produced With Son Joachim -- Who Also Contributes Drums And Percussion -- Cooder Takes Control; He Plays Guitars, Bass, Banjo, Mandolin, And Keyboards In A Program Of Eight Covers And Three Fine Originals. He Opens With An Intimate Version Of The Pilgrim Travelers' 1950s Gospel Hit "Straight Street." With Banjo And Mandolin Buoyed By His Electric Guitar Fills And Joachim's Snare, Cooder Presents Evidence Of His Protagonist's Difficulties Living "...on Broadway Right Next To The Liar's House...." Before Finding Solace In God's Light. The Backing Chorus (Featuring The Late Terry Evans) Slips And Sways, Underscoring Every Syllable. Cooder Doesn't Need To Testify Vocally, The Lyrics And His Guitar Do That. "Shrinking Man" Is An Original Filled With Poignant Metaphor Set To A Raucous, Bluesy Country Stomp Delivered In Electric Jug Band Style. The Original "Gentrification" Offers Biting Social Satire Adorned With Layers Of Acoustic And Electric Guitars Played In Nigerian Hi-life Style With Kalimba, Bells, And Whistles; Its Humorous Lyrics Are Rife With The Truth. Cooder's Readings Of Blind Willie Johnson's "Everybody Ought To Treat A Stranger Right" And "Nobody's Fault But Mine" Resonate With Conviction And Gritty Determination. Alfred Reed's Hymn "You Must Unload" Features Robert Francis Commagere On Bass And Aubrey Haynie On Violin. They Color His Prophetic Vocal In Calling The Powerful, Greedy, And Decadent To Account. The Title Cut Is Traditional. Cooder Renders It A Grimy, Electric, Country Blues -- Complete With An Homage To Country Legend Ralph Mooney's Pedal Steel Guitar Playing. Banjo, Mandolin, And Snares Create A Frame For Blind Roosevelt Graves' Strident "I'll Be Rested When The Roll Is Called," While Carter Stanley's "Harbor Of Love" Has Been Recontextualized As A Gently Soulful, Painterly, Country-gospel Tune. Cooder's Own "Jesus And Woody" Is A Tender Allegory Sung From The Former's Viewpoint As He Requests The Legendary Folksinger To Sit And Play For Him As He Reflects On Sin, Fascism, And The Dream Of A Better World. This Would Have Been A Great Place To Stop, But Cooder Has Another Rocker To Deliver In The Traditional Church Stomper "In His Care," Where Crisscrossing Rhythms And Gospel Strut Meet Rebellious Roots Rock & Roll. His Reliance On Gospel Here Illuminates His Commitment To Equality. Prodigal Son Is Yet Another Act Of Committed Intention From One Of American Music's Greatest Guardians And Purveyors. In Its Grain, Aesthetic Pleasure And The Will For Justice Converse And Ultimately Convince The Rest Of Us To Act." AMG Review By Thom Jurek more
