Anyone have an original inner sleeve they'd like to sell, sing out.
(If you're reading this, I'm still looking - will remove the comment when I have one!) -
Probably one of my more favorite Cooder albums. Americana/Country sound. Good listen! -
Solid LP, a true icon and you can hear his influence in so many artists that followed him. Ry pops in my up collection in so many different artists from Randy Newman to Beuna Vista Social Club.
