From "Ry Cooder & The Moula Banda Rhythm Aces: Let's Have A Ball", a film by Les Blank taped at The Catalyst, Santa Cruz, CA on March 25'th 1987. Awesome solo's by George Bohannon and Ry using slide on mandoguitar! (that was a first for me)
Look out for "Delta Time" by Terry Evans & Hans Theessink out Sept. 21. Terry and Hans is joined by Ry Cooder, Bobby King and Arnold McCuller - all from this concert. See "The making of Delta Time" here: [ Ссылка ]
Comment from MrBillindallas:
Concert was from a two night run - the last of nine total dates on the NorCal tour. Shot on 16mm film with an audio remote truck in the alley. Movie was released in Europe but not in the US. Great band, at one of the best venues in the 'States, the last two nights of the mini-tour they were truly on fire. One venue was so small the band filled the stage and the dance floor.
