What could be more pleasing than to hear Ry Cooder singing dustbowl ballads? I bought the LP Into the Purple Valley more than 35 years ago and I still play and enjoy it. FDR in Trinidad is probably my favorite song off the album.
Anyone who cares for Arlo Guthrie, Bob Dylan, or Randy Newman will go wild over this CD. I can't believe it's an import! Has American musical taste gone away like our highways, levees, and bridges?
I got a taste of the new Ry Cooder anthology on public radio and thought I'd buy it; but then, when I discovered all the Cooder music I've missed in my adult lifetime, I decided to purchase, instead, My Name is Buddy, because it reminded me so much of this old one.
Buy it: you'll love it.
