The Ry Cooder Story “The Ry Cooder Story“ delves deep into the legendary career of master guitarist Ry Cooder

In 1968 and '69, Cooder contributed to several Rolling Stones albums and side projects. Some of this is shrouded in myth and controversy, and some questions will probably never be fully answered. It's pretty safe to say that Cooder only participated in a relatively small number of sessions. Or as Keith Richards put it in his memoir, "He was only there for a brief moment, and then he was gone again." Sometimes several years passed between recording and release.

Cooder's soundtracks are nearly as good as his solo albums. He created some of his best pieces in this field. At the same time, cinema gave him the opportunity to work more experimentally and break free from the constraints of song structure. Which is your favorite soundtrack?
