Ry Cooder- Paradise And Lunch
About Paradise & Lunch
Amazon.com Think of Ry Cooder as a musicologist who makes learning fun. A particularly nifty collection from 1974, Paradise & Lunch is solo Cooder at his best. The song selection is inspired and unpredictable: numbers by Burt Bacharach, Mississippi Fred McDowell, and Bobby Womack commingle with ease. "Tattler" is a rare Ry original that happens to be one of the collection's highlights. Jazz legend Earl Hines guests on the dapper "Ditty Wa Ditty." --Steven Stolder Review Cooder is a masterful bottleneck guitarist and limited singer with a penchant for revitalizing marvelous old songs, often of the blues variety. Inventive arrangements and excellent ensemble musicianship on Blind Blake's "Diddie Wa Diddie" (that's jazz giant Earl Hines on piano), Willie McTell's "Tattler," and seven more from the American songbook carry the charge through this delightful album from 1974. -- © Frank John Hadley 1993 -- From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
