Why has this concert never been released ? Probably one of the greatest concerts ever. If American traditional music could be represented by a concert, this would be it. It has everything; folk, gospel, rock, Americana...
True Soul wrapped up in Gospel & delivered in the Blues. Ry Cooder has always been a special soul, gathering those around him with the passion to deliver.
This is at the peak of Ry Cooder´s musical career - just as any other music he produces - genius, Legend who cannot go wrong I like to believe - musicologist, Global & national treasure
Joy is in my heart.my mom sang this song..we HD family alter prayer w our 7 children si g that song my 1young son took it seriously as He still sings it in reminds me of better days..my 7 are grown& all love JESUS
Thanks to all of you that commented and educated us about Ry's instrument. As always, Mr. Cooder is unique. I would be remiss if I did not thank the person posting this. THANKS !
Ry Cooder has always been a Great Proponent Of Soul, Blues, & Gospel from his Beginning Career as a Musical Artist and His Command Of String Instruments is Legendary Too And He Puts It Down Like Nobody Else ! - He Is One Of The Best- From Rasta Paul Reggae DJ, VFR Radio, Northampton,MA.USA.---
Sensational..Ry Cooder is a singing and slider on guitar musician..fantastically performed..this gospel song is very touching and the entertainer is awesome with backup singers..thank you all..
Wish my husband were alive to see this. He had the album Into the Purple Valley so long ago and we never knew he sang this. It's great I love this song
Fantastic. All of them. Early Ry Cooder LP's are real gems. Saw him with Bobby King & Terry Evans in the 80's. I don't think he's been back to Toronto since. Too bad!
Ry is too much. First off he looks like some harmless weedy pop singer. You could slap a beatle jacket on him. But then out comes this enormous raw okey shouter voice all festooned with huge gospel realism and he just knocks you out!
Not too much for me....i could handle All-Ry all the time! ;) top of my all-time favourite musicians...not to take anything away from any of the accompanying musicians!
I've watched this great video so many times, but tonight was the first time I ever noticed the pack of smokes on the piano. Now I love the performance even more!
Instantly recognizable, brilliant playing. Ry is the most respected within the music business,of all the living blues guitarists, period. The so called rock and roll hall of fame is not even worthy of him.
needed a Ry Cooder fix this morning. some days are like that. willie and merle are great " pot" song also. it ws first on this page. thanks for making my day!
We used to sing this in church back in the 70's. The Church of course had their own version. It is amazing to hear again-in a blues version. It made my spirit soar!
Absolutely. Jesus enjoyed a good party! I'm sure he would have enjoyed Ry & the Moula Banda Rhythm Aces! Does this sound like a 'party pooper' to you? Marriage at Cana - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_at_Cana
Wow! I wish I could have been there, on fire, wow! This is real playing and singing. This brings memories and all good ones, the way it's played and sang, chills run up and down my spine. What a gig that was.
@danmiller66 Comment from WesleyvanH: "That Vox Mandoguitar Ry's playing is a octave twelfe. A hybrid with a short-scale 12-string guitar neck and a small solid electric guitar body. It's usually tuned one octave higher than a standard guitar with the pairs of strings tuned in unison rather than in octaves as is the case of standard 12-string guitars. This puts the instrument in the same range as a mandolin."
Long time ago I bought an obscure bootleg CD titled " Ry Cooder . Live USA" (LSD Record 152.062) in an department store (!). It features 10 tracks from the movie in mono (like this youtube video). You can find it here: www.discogs.com/de/Ry-Cooder-Live-USA/release/2897627
That's such a beautiful sentiment beautiful and sweet and lovely lady from India! May you Always be Supremely Blessed with Love and Joy and Peace from Up High!
@@draaikont8637 Sincerely, yours is not an uncommon situation, because we all feel God is supposed to hear our every desire, and fulfill it as we order Him to.
I believe it's a Vox Mando-Guitar, made from '64-'68. Unison string pairs, not octaves. But enough technical trivia, Ry could play rubber bands stretched across a shoebox and sound great.
I've ALWAYs loved this- sometimes I just start singing back up- someone said Ry Cooder could sing at my funeral- AMen to that- I talk to him the time- not sure he's listening- I meant jesus- but Ry Cooder would be cool-
I love this song my first time seeing this I am a child of God this is so awesome but if I called him up it would be to watch over my kids his children and family I miss my babysister and dad, but I know one day I will see them again he already knows what I want are need
My Grandma loved this song it's a old Fire baptized song her prayers have kept me on the true path all these years. I see the light Grandma.

And Soul... ❤
It's a concert film by Les Blank. Pretty sure it's still up in full on youtube and there's an accompanying album
Man, what a performance, with an all star band.
The sweetest and the grooviest thing, don't you agree.

Ry Cooder is ALWAYS at his peak.

Monster crew on this one! Bobby King/Terry Evans are SO good. Have a couple of their lp's from back in the day.
Was watching a movie and heard this song, it blew me away...
What movie?
Rys guitar sounds like pure sound going out to fans all around the globe..beautiful..in all ways..genius on stage
That's a twelve string electric mandolin
One of those performances that touch your very soul
hhhhoe amen
best thing on my playlist
The vocal quartet is what makes this performance for me . . . powerful singers all and they rock the hell out of Mainline !
💯 💯 💯 💯!
especially dat bass Sanger! whooo
I have seen Ry Cooder several times and he is one of the best. His bands are always all world
Had to listen to it one more time love the reaction on all there faces Amen Hallelujah praise God
Pure genious. How the hell he gets that thing in tune let alone finger-picking it AND bottlenecking beats me. Great track. Thanks
This is definitely the most soulful version of this old gospel hymn I have ever heard!
Absolutely fantastic…., music and words
Thanks to all of you that commented and educated us about Ry's instrument. As always, Mr. Cooder is unique. I would be remiss if I did not thank the person posting this. THANKS !

Always enjoy hearing this.

Wish my husband were alive to see this. He had the album Into the Purple Valley so long ago and we never knew he sang this. It's great I love this song
If you had that album you should be familiar with one of my favorites, Ry's cover of Denomination Blues!
@@adderman1950 no not familiar with any other albums for whatever reason. But I'll check out Denomination Blues 👍
Denomination Blues is a song off the Into The Purple Valley album. That is why I thought you might have heard it.
🤷It was fifty years ago
@@adderman1950 I do remember the song Money Honey
Just make that most important call! Thanks Ryland. Got me on my knees
fine song and excellent Mando-guitar play
Fantastic. All of them. Early Ry Cooder LP's are real gems. Saw him with Bobby King & Terry Evans in the 80's. I don't think he's been back to Toronto since. Too bad!
He visited since then. Hello Madeleine
Ry is too much. First off he looks like some harmless weedy pop singer. You could slap a beatle jacket on him. But then out comes this enormous raw okey shouter voice all festooned with huge gospel realism and he just knocks you out!
Ry is the realest deal there is!
IDK how a guy from LA has a okey shouter voice. lol
Well said.
Not too much for me....i could handle All-Ry all the time! ;) top of my all-time favourite musicians...not to take anything away from any of the accompanying musicians!
Just heard him playing, can't stop listening to him!
I loved this Album. Paradise and Lunch. One of my all time fave songs
I've watched this great video so many times, but tonight was the first time I ever noticed the pack of smokes on the piano. Now I love the performance even more!
this guy is so awesome and i love this song. never heard another version as good as this
Lois Pulliam Indeed. Me neither. And just killin' it on solo from 3:15 to 4:00.
priceless back vocals as well
Me either
@@lilychauque5234 they are quartet who have their own songs. Ry plays many of them.
Ry is one of those very few absolute greats.
Instantly recognizable, brilliant playing. Ry is the most respected within the music business,of all the living blues guitarists, period. The so called rock and roll hall of fame is not even worthy of him.
5 years. Grown up yet?
marinman39 you got that right!
He's basically a silver haired guy now; still a stone genius
What singing and playing!Wonderful is the only word for it......
needed a Ry Cooder fix this morning. some days are like that. willie and merle are great " pot" song also. it ws first on this page. thanks for making my day!
What was on this page first?
A talent for the ages. I am grateful this artist dropped into this world.
Great great stuff!
It's Jesus on the mainline!
Simply, greater! Ry Cooder, one of my favorites guitar players...
Vitor Mendes
Amen!
I. Love. Song
Tearing up that mandolin
Don't neglect the vocal group and the Maker of those folks in your praises.
We used to sing this in church back in the 70's. The Church of course had their own version. It is amazing to hear again-in a blues version. It made my spirit soar!
this whole concert is amazing--who needs pop music when we have the likes of this
It doesn't always have to be just on Sundays...feeling it, love this song
Absolutely. Jesus enjoyed a good party! I'm sure he would have enjoyed Ry & the Moula Banda Rhythm Aces! Does this sound like a 'party pooper' to you?

'Leap of faith' bought me here, glad it did, wonderful. Thanks for the clip. Best wishes from Melbourne Aus.
Brings me back to the day we saw the Dead play at Laguna Seca raceway with Ry Cooder and opening for them the SAME DAY as this!
hello ry, thank you again for your music .
I could listen to this tune all day.
Wow! I wish I could have been there, on fire, wow! This is real playing and singing.
This brings memories and all good ones, the way it's played and sang, chills run up and down my spine.
What a gig that was.
Ry has a new release of gospel music!

Great INFO
One of my favorite musicians performing at one of my favorite clubs.
One of my favourites. The whole band is so well synhronized.
Absolutely gorgeous! "Down in Mississippi" they did this same night is also great btw
Yes! That gives me chills!
I hope those vocalists were paid well!
@snicky58
Well, if they weren’t, then Bobby and Terry performed an unprecedented 5 decades long act of charity for Ry.
Dude! That is Colonel Sanders' nephew who also worked at NASA on the keys. @2:30 I love this performance through and through.
How did they not release these concerts there are some unbelievable performances some of his best ever surely?!

The legends never dies like the sweet music of master Ry Cooder
simply love these vocals, thanks for posting
He is so fantastic 🥰
I keep trying to wear out the replay button. lol. Amazing stuff.
just outright plain beautiful. call Him up.
this is awesome great and wonderful and above R.C.'s band's perfection in emotion and devotion the keyboard organ is the topping!
I just couldn 't stop crying while listening to this song. Ms Amrita from India
That's such a beautiful sentiment beautiful and sweet and lovely lady from India!
May you Always be Supremely Blessed with Love and Joy and Peace from Up High!
Hare Krsna!
I stay in India and call on Lord Christ Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
🙏🏻👋🏻 📿 Every day cry for Him!
Beautiful music!
I love that you're from India and I'm in Maine, USA and we're both crying too.
crying out from the netherlands. just found a little peace listening. although for some reason god never listens to what i say 😥

Solid body mandolin with strat pickups and electrics!! I want one! :D
Not a mandolin. It’s a 12-string guitar tuned one octave up from standard.
I believe it's a Vox Mando-Guitar, made from '64-'68. Unison string pairs, not octaves. But enough technical trivia, Ry could play rubber bands stretched across a shoebox and sound great.
Big thanks! I’m a guitarist and I was wondering what it was, confused. Great combo. Should I make my own? Sam X
1 of my mom's favorite songs, lovely❤
2022 and still remembering my Grandpa singing this song May His Soul Rest in Peace ⚘
While you there with God please tell him what i want 🙏
"JESUS IS ON THE MAINLIIINE TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT!!!" I LOVE YOU JESUS!!!!!!!
12 string ee-lectic mando played slide! How cool is that? Long live Ry Cooder!
Good evening from Singapore! I hope you'd have a nice week =)
still play this album everyday in the car or house.FANTASTIC.
A musical genius if there ever was one.
First time I ever heard this version . . . 👏👏👏😬😍
Simply brilliant!
Very COOL. 😎👍👍
Thankyou Jesus for being with me when I am lost
IT JUST DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS !!
if it does let me know
@@marshsherrif2824 😂
Bobby King Legend, Ryan Cooder Legend ❤❤
Ryland Cooder.
So good, it makes me want to abandon reason and believe in Jesus.
Ry cooder is a sound human being ,, needless to say , a wonderful musician. I am lucky enough too own a signed copy of his book, los Angeles stories.
Great version of one of my all-time faves.
I've ALWAYs loved this- sometimes I just start singing back up- someone said Ry Cooder could sing at my funeral- AMen to that- I talk to him the time- not sure he's listening- I meant jesus- but Ry Cooder would be cool-
Still love this one!
I still on the line, yes
Ry Cooder is the best guitarist that most people have never heard. This is some of the best guitar Ive ever heard. Same with Feelin Bad Blues.
Vox mandoguitar..
WOOAH what a playing !!! Ry Cooder is really good.
This is excellent!
holy crap I've played this a hundred times .....
Jesus knows - can't stop watching. one of the best. thanks
I`m a jazz-guy. but Ry kills it, all the time. What a guy :)
Beautiful.
What a band! Damn!
Love this song.
Well said , Carl Sagan...Respect. After watching this, RC has everyones respect.
Cooder at his best. Thanks for posting this marvelous song.
I love this song my first time seeing this I am a child of God this is so awesome but if I called him up it would be to watch over my kids his children and family I miss my babysister and dad, but I know one day I will see them again he already knows what I want are need
Thank you
