Ry Cooder Chavez Ravine (2 LPs)

Double LP Pressing. Gatefold Jacket. With this 2005 album, Ry remembered the vivacious and flavorful Latino neighborhood in L.A. that was bulldozed for new developments (including Dodger Stadium). Mexican music, Latin pop, R&B and jazz flood together as Cooder summons memories of the long-gone Chávez Ravine with "Poor Man’s Shangri-La," "Onda Callejera," "Don’t Call Me Red," "Corrido De Boxeo," "Muy Fifi," "El U.F.O. Cayo," "3 Cool Cats" and more songs sung in Spanish and English featuring Lalo Guerrero, Don Tosti, Little Willie G., Ersi Arvizu and more. This Grammy-nominated delight now comes to vinyl for the first time!
