The Prodigal Son

• Track Listing

2018 release from the iconic guitarist. Aided by his son and chief collaborator, drummer Joachim Cooder, Ry puts a fresh, contemporary spin on long-treasured black and white church music on this soul-stirring album. Ry's expressive vocals and elegant guitar work voice songs once sung by the Pilgrim Travelers, Blind Willie Johnson and the Stanley Brothers; you'll also encounter some Cooder originals as you hear "Straight Street," "Shrinking Man," "Everybody Ought to Treat a Stranger Right," "The Prodigal Son," "Nobody's Fault but Mine," "In His Care," "Harbor of Love" and more.
