Ry Cooder ORIG OZ LP Boomer’s story EX ’72 Reprise MS2117 Blues Rock Roots Rock
Original OZ LP released in 1972 on Reprise Records. Cat: MS2117.
Boomer's Story, Ry Cooder's third record, continues his archeological dig through music's familiar and forgotten past. As was the case with his previous recordings, he not only looks to the masters including blues legend Sleepy John Estes, songwriter Dan Penn (both of whom appear here) and the great Skip James for material, but to lost and neglected pieces of American folk and blues, as well. Cooder adds the traditional title-track, which opens the album, and Lawrence Wilson's "Crow Black Chicken," which dates back to the late 1920s, to this collection of discoveries both of which are handled with just the right balance of personality and reverence.
