    A couple of new (to me) Ry Cooder discoveries makes me wonder how much else is out there that he had his beautiful hands on.

    “Willin” on the first Little Feat album. All these years thinking this was Lowell George… kind of weird.

    “Jamming With Edward” Ry w Nicki Hopkins and the Stones Rhythm section w Mick singing. If you’re a Ry fan you’ll like it. Otherwise, its kind of raw.

    John Hiatt’s “Bring The Family”. Great album and wonderful guitar work by Ry. A gem.

    Here are a few albums with Ry featuring:

    Bobby King & Terry Evans Live and Let Live
    Terry Evans Puttin' It Down
    Terry Evans Blues For Thought
    Buena Vista Social Club

    Ibrahim Ferrer Buenos Hermanos
    Streets Of Fire
    soundtrack (just on Hold That Snake)
    Rising Sons (with Taj Mahal)
    Little Village
    Mambo Sinuendo
    (with Manuel Galban)

    Although I'm a huge fan of Ry and just buy anything with his name somewhere on it, I really like him best when he lets some good singers do the vocals and he just concentrates on guitar.

    Ry is on Juliette Commagere's solo album Queens Die Proudly. She's the singer who has supported Ry live and appears on several of his recent albums, notably "El UFO Cayó" on Chavez Ravine. She performed that song during her set when she supported Ry and Nick Lowe at Sage Gateshead a few years ago.

    He might be on her other albums, but that's the only one I've got. It's very good, too. Her voice is gorgeous.

    He's on the track Shenandoah from Bill Frisell's Good Dog Happy Man, just the one track but so good.
