Right in there with you man. I'm 70 seen some hard traveling too. This music makes me think when I read the obits. Never was meant to last. We just thought it would. Peace my brother.
life is great, miss the older days, remember your first memories, oh how it was fun being a child, friends to play with, getting in trouble, being just a little kid, young playing, tomorrow comes, its ok we will do the sam,e thing again tomorrow. that special moment, being a kid and seeing your favorite view, that memory stuck with you forever, never can go back to that time, just a little closer to the end, its coming, its going to happen one way or another, i guess its just time to sit back and remember the good old days, the days before my innocence disappeared.
I see several mentions of being alone. Some of us are torn between the joy and peace of being alone and the sometime desire for companionship. Some of us seem to require long periods of solitude and that solitude is not a feeling of being alone. We are with ourselves and its many aspects and facets. And "we" are never really alone at least for those of us who believe in an all pervading and encompassing God. But then again there's often such joy from being with people especially those special ones and thus the being torn. I suppose it is like many other things a balance. May you find yours. Peace from an occasional loner (smile).
+ainthurtinnobody Wow, this describes spot on my character and personality. The way you define it, is amazing! How you find the words to express it,....speechless. You must be a great person, thank you for sharing this! :-)
I took the liberty of taking a peek at your site, i hope you don't mind. Amazing, again for the second time you "touch" my personality spot on. When i looked at your taste of music I got overwhelmed by flashbacks of nostalgia. At the same time i got struck by a phase of melancholy, in a pleasant way... In the maze of my complexity I give you a special place, which i will cherish, because you are a person - in my opinion - who enriches ones life. And again I thank you for that. Kind regards, DonJohn
Don John Thanks John. I'm overwhelmed. Not the average internet response. I did not even need my force field shield. But for anyone possibly listening I have it handy and can use it at a moments notice (smile).
Ry has always been one of my favs since I was a kid in the 60's, and this perfect for how I feel right now with all this covid bullshit going on, and seeing people like sheep lead to the slaughter!
+Mossy McSharry Well, one could argue you could thank the Devil. Even if they didn't go to the Crossroads, Robert Johnson is a clear inspiration, and the Devil surely gave him those sweet fingers.
Lots of towns... Lots of songs... Lots of women... Good times... Bad times... Only thing I wanted anyone to say is... 'He could really play... He was good'.
If Ry Cooder and Hank Williams Sr. gotin together on this song "Feelin Bad Glues" to me, there wouldn't have been another Blues song Ever Better. There were only 2 times in my life i can relate to "Feelin Bad Times Blues" one night wile on the US Coast Guard ship i was stationed on by ourselfs floating in the middle of the Black Bearing Sea back in 1964 looking up at the night sky gave me a Very Lonely feelin, felt like just jumin over the side. The other time when my lovin wife after 47 years of marriage passed a few years ago, but Time Heals, just not dwelling on those times but keep on livin day to day the best you can with the help of Jehovah God. THANKS SO MUCH Geert.Glaasker for puttin this Great Blues Song out on YouTub by Ry Cooder.
Never have I heard a song invoke emptiness and despair the way Ry does here. No matter how good a player is, there are some things that cannot be taught, invoking emotion this intense in others is truly a gift.
His music always creates an atmosphere that struck me straight into my soul..... If it is Paris Texas, Southern Comfort or his Crossroad duel, unbelievable.
Good music is dependent upon technique and musical knowledge and playing skill depending on whether you are composing or playing. Ry is a good player (technique/skill), I like his style, Hendrix (allegedly) is a good player (technique/skill) too but I don't like his music doesn't change the quality of good music. Good music is independent of personal likes. .
I group up in Texas listening to my Dad play country blues, he could play so good, he grew up poor. This song reminds me of him playing on the front porch.
Beautiful. A master of slide guitar. An instrument with an exceptionally descriptive message. Very rarely can one instrument cover so much space. Again Beautiful.
Scrapes from the bottle neck, a few missed notes, a couple of miss-hit notes....its the imperfection that makes this perfect. I bet this was done in one take, played with the heart and improvised, just like the blues should be. Ry Cooder, in just four minutes you encompassed a lifetime of heartache, I kneel before you.
cant hear me man.i just want to know if my computer is working that's eversince I changed password an email it only work with friend I have now.iam getting a new one toda and ask for friends with the mermaids,because I like the one with light brown hair
If you like this you need to listen to Ry's "Vigilante Man" here on youtube. Made me a Ry Cooder believer 40 some years ago. Nobody plays slide like Ry.
Tomorrow ain't never as good as yesterday, let them memories remind you of the good times, but don't forget the bad, cause for every mountain you climb there's a hundred swamps you gotta trudge through. Keep your head high and keep your eyes dry, don't let nothing get you down. Life is what you see it as, don't let nobody tell you different.
I heard this one first in the Walter Hill movie "Crossroads" with Ralph Macchio and Joe Seneca. Loved the movie ever since despite the acting and the story.
+rationalguy Yes, a Dobro is a brand of a wood-bodied, single cone resonator guitar (looks like it has a metal hubcap in the center), and is generally played laying flat. Check out Jerry Douglas on You tube for the best dobro guitar player around. Ry plays what is called "bottleneck" guitar, where the neck of a bottle (like a vinegar bottle in Ry's early years, or a Corocidin bottle in Duane Allman's early years, or a metal slide in some guitarists cases) is used to "slide" across the strings of either a traditional acoustic guitar or an electric guitar. It is a playing style or method, rather than a type of guitar as is the "Dobro" resonator guitar. Ry is in my opinion the best bottleneck player around, he learned directly from many of the old bluesmen.
My favorite blues tune from one of my favorite moviws,"Crossroads." Gotta love the blues and I don't know anyone who plays the slide blues guitar with more feeling than Ry Cooder. Thank you for sharings this with the rest of us.
well I can't see properly - I WISH I could be alone but I lovve the madness bring it on- my kids are 26 and 22 and I almost wish they wou;d have wee ones for me to play with
Thanks for some special moments - not just going to Ry's sear space - but also for the incredible vid - poignant images & text in harmony with those amazing blues strings.
broke me out of the money contract signing , sat back in the chair lit a cigar , poured a fine shot of jack Daniels and thought god dam ,,,this is living,,, memories flashed and smiles of hot loving women now just a distant memory shadow on the dimly lit wall memories of roads that run with tumble weed dust and the star illuminated night moon glistens off the tarmac , the up to temperature smooth running low rumble of the ole girl and her twin sister big bore vee twin , good times bad times and some FTW ,,,to all brotherhood MC world wide respect , loyalty and jack fucking Daniels ,,peace thanks for the last ride
Well "Victor" ! That was the name of my dog friend, who was "Braque de Weimar" ! sorry for this comment, but I spent the all night trying to remember the name of my dog friend ! And I finally got it, looking at all these dogs and young ladies...
Hi man. I think it's a stratocaster , modified with a lapsteel pickup , but i'm not sure. Check some cover on youtube with a "coodercaster".And you're right , it's not a telecaster =)
We're all great actors at some point in our life, hiding stuff we don't want people to see. We just never went to Hollywood and did it for a living.............
Really nice picture montage to go along with a magical song. I've seen the move 'Crossroads' that it was in probably 100 times. Thanks for the post and taking the time to put it together.
Hmmmm. Not bad at all. If you can hit the basics of Ry Cooter then you’re good to go. But this missed a good bit. And the proper pace of the instrumental song was off. Missing notes is one thing. Pace is another. But not bad at the end of the day. Plays it better than I. I am just now learning the instrument.
My Woman left me today..From what reason I dont know,but she is gone..Now im sitting and listen this tune and memories flashing me..Gues its the other man that she find for her.
walkin in the rain, alone. missin those that aint there no more.
arkie74 that is how life go's men its pretty fuckt...
@@rowanbos1998 dig it.
Haunting song from "The Slide Man'....
I can never listen to this with a dry eye. I'm an old man. This song always makes me think of many loves long gone.
Me, too ~ I'm 70. Thank goodness for the Music, it's your special friend.
oh yaaaaa.

Great song. Great video. Tanks =)
why the photograph of ellen terry?
"blues ain't nothin' but a good man feelin' bad"
Not just feelin bad
thinking about a woman he once knew
walkin alone down that old road of life in the rain.... and it always seems too be rainin.
sliding through memories and feelings sounds like
To quote Hound Dog Taylor, "The sun is shinin' but it's still rainin' in ma heart."
life is great, miss the older days, remember your first memories, oh how it was fun being a child, friends to play with, getting in trouble, being just a little kid, young playing, tomorrow comes, its ok we will do the sam,e thing again tomorrow. that special moment, being a kid and seeing your favorite view, that memory stuck with you forever, never can go back to that time, just a little closer to the end, its coming, its going to happen one way or another, i guess its just time to sit back and remember the good old days, the days before my innocence disappeared.
this masterpiece has stopped me from doing a lot of stupid things. thank you Ry.
Ry no words will do you justice Just the quintessence of the beauty of slide guitar in the hands of a master.

THE GREATEST SLIDE GUITAR PLAYER EVER MR RYLAND COODER !
He disagrees witchu...
Ry has always been one of my favs since I was a kid in the 60's, and this perfect for how I feel right now with all this covid bullshit going on, and seeing people like sheep lead to the slaughter!
@@eliseereclus3475 You tell them! I still haven't found any ! Moron!
Thank God for Ry Cooder, J.J. Cale and Roy Buchanan, all's I can say.
+Mossy McSharry Well, one could argue you could thank the Devil. Even if they didn't go to the Crossroads, Robert Johnson is a clear inspiration, and the Devil surely gave him those sweet fingers.
+DJ Wise Pariah
God made the Devil too, DJ...and the Devil is God, just having fun.
Mossy McSharry Oh my God, that's such a southern, down home way of thinking about the Devil, and I love it.
I would add Mark Knopfler and Jerry Douglas to the group.
MICK TAYLOR!
One of the best from the "Crossroads" sound track, amply certifying Ry as a worthy follow on to Robert Johnson......Now THIS is the blues.....
Lots of towns... Lots of songs... Lots of women... Good times... Bad times... Only thing I wanted anyone to say is... 'He could really play... He was good'.
"Is good" VTV SD - he still is really good.

I agree, but check out "Dark Was the Night - Cold Was the Ground" by Blind Willie Johnson.
Andrew Lavin there´s a much nicer arrangement from Ry on his strat
the life is not easy,sometime i hate it
The best slide blues song
His music always creates an atmosphere that struck me straight into my soul..... If it is Paris Texas, Southern Comfort or his Crossroad duel, unbelievable.
he didnt play the crossroads duel. That was Steve Vai.
Steve Vai vs. Ty (Ralph Macchio)
steve vai played both parts maam.
***** im sure your much better at guitar than the two masters who played that duel.
Good music is dependent upon technique and musical knowledge and playing skill depending on whether you are composing or playing.

It’s good. But you’re correct as it is no where near Ry Cooter. Period.
Absolutely beautiful playing and presentation of the feelings of the plays, releasing the tears and finding redemption. Thanks....

There are a handful of people that can really send you - Ry Cooder is among that select group. Masterful!
Not a single note out of place. RPC is pure genius.
haha I think he had a few takes in the studio
Wow! Who *hasn't* been here???
Much happiness and many beautiful girls in your 2015, to fill you with good memories, money and health. Friend!
hey sid
cant hear me man.i just want to know if my computer is working that's eversince I changed password an email it only work with friend I have now.iam getting a new one toda and ask for friends with the mermaids,because I like the one with light brown hair
are you scared to comment
You hear Ry with your soul...with your heart...not with your ears....
If you like this you need to listen to Ry's "Vigilante Man" here on youtube. Made me a Ry Cooder believer 40 some years ago. Nobody plays slide like Ry.
Bob M you have right,thats a very-very best sound of ry- slide guitar,a lot of senntiments
Now that's a bad jam
"Blues aint nuthin but a good man feeling bad"
The Blues isn't just music it's a force in itself, that encapsulates and reflects a person's life, whether it be happy or sad.
great slide from Ry,really like the photo of the guy walking his cat
OMG! This is *SO* beautiful! The pictures are just f...... amazing! Thank you for this!
I'm with you Geert. This one is on my perpetual playlist.
Ry is one of the best blues guitarists I've ever heard.
That's the best music I've ever heard!!!!!!!!!!
Tomorrow ain't never as good as yesterday, let them memories remind you of the good times, but don't forget the bad, cause for every mountain you climb there's a hundred swamps you gotta trudge through. Keep your head high and keep your eyes dry, don't let nothing get you down. Life is what you see it as, don't let nobody tell you different.
I'm 'feelin pretty good' right now.
I get hella goosebumps every time I hear this
RY COODER !! .. BLUES !! .. 🎼🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶
Perfect song for a crucial time. We need to feel bad some times. Cant feel great all the time.
I heard this one first in the Walter Hill movie "Crossroads" with Ralph Macchio and Joe Seneca. Loved the movie ever since despite the acting and the story.
This rendition gives me the feeling of freedom and more so peace. It is what you interprete in it. A masterpiece
+Bernd Kohler Is there a difference between the "slide guitar" played here and a Dobro? I'm confused.
+rationalguy Me again : Listen to cuts 6 and 7. That's Prodigal Son and You Gotta Move. Enjoy.
+rationalguy Yes, a Dobro is a brand of a wood-bodied, single cone resonator guitar (looks like it has a metal hubcap in the center), and is generally played laying flat. Check out Jerry Douglas on You tube for the best dobro guitar player around. Ry plays what is called "bottleneck" guitar, where the neck of a bottle (like a vinegar bottle in Ry's early years, or a Corocidin bottle in Duane Allman's early years, or a metal slide in some guitarists cases) is used to "slide" across the strings of either a traditional acoustic guitar or an electric guitar.

Ry is in my opinion the best bottleneck player around, he learned directly from many of the old bluesmen.
+Crystal Longdon 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👣❤
This tune always makes me cry but it brings hope. Life can knock me down but it can't keep me down. Thank God for the blues
great song bad video ,,, to me it just looks like a a pamphlet from a mental health care
Listen closely and you can hear his behind the slide harmonics overdubbed on a second track . Very cool !
One of my favorite songs of all time! --Doc
My favorite blues tune from one of my favorite moviws,"Crossroads." Gotta love the blues and I don't know anyone who plays the slide blues guitar with more feeling than Ry Cooder. Thank you for sharings this with the rest of us.
One of the best blues tune i've ever heard. Full of feeling ,emotions... When i heard this i'm just thinkin : Perfect , and that's all.
...the playing is so good you can smell it, feel it, ...it's almost as he's playing in an old, delapitated,hotel by the miss...classic...rr
I blew it way back in 1992... I should have kept her.
come far parlare una chitarra!!!!fantastico!!!!!
this will be played when they put me in the dirt.
I think I just dropped a tear (or two) into my glass of Buffalo Trace...................................................
with the intention of these few lines of text is nothing wrong according to blues ;)
One of the best weeping slide guitar songs out there. Thanks for the post!
this tune changed my guitar playing ...Ry is magical
well I can't see properly - I WISH I could be alone but I lovve the madness bring it on- my kids are 26 and 22 and I almost wish they wou;d have wee ones for me to play with
Best slide guitarist ever-Plus he has cajun music running through his veins.CH
Paris, TX..... Thanks Ry.. playing alongside and learning.....
Love this music. This feeling pulls me in more any other style of playing.
This has been on for while; but it's truly beautiful music and the pictures - and their timing - add to it. Not many sounds can match this.
This music holds everything in it, it wrentches your heart out!!! Takes you deep deep within. Places where you don't want to go back, dark.
Thanks for some special moments - not just going to Ry's sear space - but also for the incredible vid - poignant images & text in harmony with those amazing blues strings.
Grande Super... che dire
Songs like this are the only thing that make me feel connected to this world thank you
9 people just dont get it.......
The music was always for the ages. The pictures are just wonderful.
broke me out of the money contract signing , sat back in the chair lit a cigar , poured a fine shot of jack Daniels and thought god dam ,,,this is living,,, memories flashed and smiles of hot loving women now just a distant memory shadow on the dimly lit wall
memories of roads that run with tumble weed dust and the star illuminated night moon glistens off the tarmac , the up to temperature smooth running low rumble of the ole girl and her twin sister big bore vee twin , good times bad times and some

Incredibile...un pezzo clamoroso...intensità surreale...
Awsome................
Get Ry Cooder to sing my eulogy-Gord Downie, Jr.
Thank you thank you. Oh man, Ry Cooder.... Who does it like him?
This is a beautiful piece of music.
yeah, thisn makes me cry every time.
Sensitive sounds, visuals, sharing a very real human feeling that is all too widely felt these days. Thanks for so beautifully sharing it!
Music is played by the musician. Good music is declared good music by those who hear the music.
sublime ! merci
Blues.. while you listen to it, you know that there are people that have the same feelings that you have! It helps!
nice
We're all great actors at some point in our life, hiding stuff we don't want people to see. We just never went to Hollywood and did it for a living.............
This music is brill but the film take's the cookie .Keep the music going,,.........
Forget the photos, close yours eyes and crank this up.

played with the expression of a great violinist
Can't think of any song(instrumental) that can just pull on raw emotion like this song.
