HMV Review

Ry Cooder is known as a virtuoso on almost every stringed instrument, and on Into the Purple Valley, he demonstrates this ability on a wide variety of instruments. The main focus of the music here is on the era of the Dust Bowl, and what was happening in America at the time, socially and musically. Songs by Woody Guthrie, Leadbelly, and a variety of others show Cooder's encyclopedic knowledge of the music of this time, combined with an instinctive feel for the songs. 'Phenomenal' is the descriptive word to describe his playing, whether it is on guitar, Hawaiian slack key guitar, mandolin, or the more arcane instruments he has found. This is a must for those who love instrumental virtuosity, authentic reworkings of an era, or just plain good music. ~ Bob Gottlieb, Rovi

    ライの初期の傑作。HMVレヴューにもありますが、ライクーダーの解釈による作品でも楽しめますが、オリジナルを探すのも面白いかと思います。今回の紙ジャケ化ではライクーダー名義の8作品のみですか。サウンドトラックを担当した映画のサントラも紙ジャケ、リマスター化をお願いします。特に「パリテキサス」あたりを!!
