04 Ry Cooder (1970)

After signing with Warner Bros. in 1969, Ry Cooder released his self-titled debut album in 1970. Featuring Cooder classics such as "Do Re Mi," "Alimony" and "Dark Is The Night," it's the first in a long line of solo masterpieces in which he uniquely reimagines old blues, Dust Bowl ballads and obscure rock 'n' roll.

This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes. In all cases, without exception, we believe this is protected by fair use in the U.S., fair dealing in the U.K. and EEA, and similar exceptions in the copyright laws of other nations. No more of the original than necessary is used, and excerpts are edited into long-form narratives, making the use transformative in nature.
