AAA Recording!Pressed at Pallas A good 20 years have passed since a band with ancient musicians from Cuba - the Buena Vista Social Club - took the world by storm. Behind the project, in the wings yet right in the midst of this unheard-of music, was Ry Cooder, who regarded this encounter as the greatest musical event of his entire life. The bottleneck guitar hero had always been very interested in the music from the other Americas ever since the solo albums he made in his early years, in which he told the story of the American folk and blues in a multitude of styles. The LP "Paradise And Lunch" is no exception and begins with gospel-like grooves that smell of native soil. The faint smell of a wooden church from pioneering days wafts out of the processional antiphonal song "Jesus On The Mainline" and a healthy 12-bar blues paints a picture of what silent witnesses could tell if they could ("If Walls Could Talk"). Cooder and his sidemen felt themselves perfectly at home when adventuring further afield and this is testified to in the laid-back calypso rhythm of "Its All Over Now" and the clip-clop of "Mexican Divorce". This wonderful album is highly recommended for each and every number, but if you want a tip for a very special track, then just listen to the ragtime piano rolls in Bo Diddleys "Ditty Wah Ditty".Features: 180g Virgin Vinyl High Quality Pressing Pure Analogue AAA Recording Audiophile Mastering By Kevin Gray From Original Master TapesMusicians:Ry Cooder, guitar, mandolin, bass, vocalsRonnie Barron, piano, organEarl Hines, piano (B4)Plas Johnson, alto saxophoneOscar Brashear, cornetRed Callender, bassJohn Duke, bassRuss Titelman, electric bassChris Ethridge, electric bassMilt Hollad, drums, percussionJim Keltner, drumsSelections:1.
