Sure, they've shared a couple songs here and there over the years, but
this is their first recording together since Rising Sons.

They have both dedicated their immense talents to Americana music and The Blues.

Will the Circle be unbroken?

Hooray!!!

From the classic album by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band which I've owned since it came out in 1972

I haven't heard music like this from Ry Cooder since his first few albums. I sure hope the LP pressing is decent!

Heard a NPR interview with Ry Cooder today. Sundaze sells a Rising Sons LP FWIW.

Two great musicians playing the music of a couple of great musicians. Listening to your link I was reminded of Boogie With Stu and Phil Alvin at about the same time.

I'll get this one - thanks for the heads up.

 

What's incredible about those two are their similar musical paths..., posted on April 16, 2022 at 09:03:50

that weave and converge through many musical styles over the
decades but have always shared the same touchstone blues root
of which they are now integral to/of.

American Griots.

It's never too late to go back in time to find "new" music and revaluate things missed.

Over on the Record Collector Facebook page there is a thread about Carol King being one of the most under-rated musicians in history. I'm no way how can someone think that? But then again the way the music industry works I get that younger people who recently discover her might think like that.

But what chance do Ry Cooder or Taj Mahal have? How about those that they honor? There's lots of digging for folks like me to do and much more for those who've come up later than me. There are endless rewards for those who make the effort to discover popular music's rich history.
