He was sitting and eating with his wife and was very nice.I kept the conversation short and sweet . He semed like he was okay with talking for a couple of minutes and let me take a photo of him and then was off to see some music. I sa him the next day at a tent where Otha Turner was playing and sad hello and it seemed like he he didn't want to talk at all.Never had the occasion to talk to Lindley although I've seen him many times. A good friend of mine who's a DJ in Pittsburgh had a great talk with him at a show there and he gave her a bunch of CD's for her to play on her show.<br />Who's Angel?<br /> Mike SaccolitiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-10446580112840824942011-09-20T18:13:09.516-07:002011-09-20T18:13:09.516-07:00Seems like someone really doesn't like Angel.Seems like someone really doesn't like Angel.Sal Nunziatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09221629293545204260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-32355508893088526352011-09-20T18:11:15.360-07:002011-09-20T18:11:15.360-07:00too bad (you were hungover) - don't know about...too bad (you were hungover) - don't know about ry but lindley is REAL approachable (having met him several times out here) - super nice and showed me some lap steel "tricks" (and told me to swear to keep them to myself!!!! ha ha!)....i love these guys PLUS they're WAY better than "Angel"!!<br />GMBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-1834180791662313732011-09-20T15:41:00.183-07:002011-09-20T15:41:00.183-07:00I had a really lousy day and this made it all go a...I had a really lousy day and this made it all go away.

How much incredible music can two dudes make? It's endless with them. I've been hoping for some kind of remastered Ry box set for years, assembled by Cooder himself. Maybe some day.
