Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Ostensibly a collection of Cooder's film music, the two-CD Music by Ry Cooder delivers the cinematic quality of a good soundtrack album but packs the kind of ferocious jams--featuring crack players such as John Hiatt, Jim Keltner, David Lindley, and Jim Dickinson--that you'll never hear on a John Williams score. Cooder's melancholy acoustic and electric-slide moans are a constant, though the material shifts from the plaintive piano tune "I Like Your Eyes" (from Johnny Handsome) to the border-town ballad "Across the Borderline" (featuring Freddy Fender) to the grit-and-spit stomp of "Bomber Bash" (from Streets of Fire). From cowboy serenades to contemporary exotica, from Paris, Texas to Alamo Bay, Cooder's soundtrack legacy is a strangely unified cross section of an American master's finest and most varied work. --James Rotondi

4.0 out of 5 stars Sublime collection of Mr Cooder's works, 30 May 2001
By A Customer
I was always on the lookout for a definitive Ry Cooder Album - one that captures the essence of his style. This record is just that. Great production, evocative, it takes you from the everglades to downtown New Orleans whilst passing through Texas on the way. A beautiful journey that has to be experienced in a particular mood. It is, in short, the perfect complement to Bop till you drop. Some of the songs are a little indulgent but so is a bottle of fine red wine. A must for anyone into slide guitar and the possibilities.

4.0 out of 5 stars A smooth slide, 28 Nov 2008
There are some real atmospheric classics on this cd - check out theme from Southern Comfort, Angola & Swamp Walk.

There's actually possibly too much variation however this shouldn't be too much of a problem if you programme the playing schedule.

Best time to listen is either on a hot summer's day relaxing in a hammock or if you need to chill in a traffic jam. Either way, the playing is sublime & well worth investigating.
