Triple-disc set of live performances by Ry Cooder from across his career. Featuring three superb live recordings, all from the peak of the great man's career, this triple disc set will prove a delight for fans of the master musician the world over. Kicking off on disc one with Ry's full show, broadcast live on 12th November 1972 from The Radio Ranch in Cleveland, Ohio, which finds Cooder in sublime form playing an acoustic, country blues set, with special emphasis on his blues hero of the day, Sleepy John Estes.
Disc Two contains his gig from a couple of years later, recorded at the Record Plant in Sausalito, California on 7th July 1974, which features a fine selection of cuts from Cooder's early 1970s Reprise albums, records which still sound as fresh today as they ever did; as indeed does this performance.
Concluding this boxed set is a recording made at the Montreux jazz festival in 1990 by Ry with long-time collaborator David Lindley, when the pair storm through a fabulous set featuring long-time Cooder classics and a great selection of numbers from his extensive film soundtrack catalogue. With all recordings in near perfect quality and fully remastered, this collection is destines to become a must-have addition for every decent Ry Cooder collection in existence.
