Ry Cooder - The Very Thing

Ry Cooder and band in 1982 with The Very Thing That Makes You Rich (Makes Me Poor). Here they were on the OGWT ahead of a tour supposedly promoting The Slide Area and they played not one single number from that album. Typical Ry... www.rycooderstuff.co.uk

Thanks for this posting. It is good to see it as the only existing version is poor quality and cut off. I would love to see a better version of Little Sister from this concert as, again, the only existing one is poor quality. I keep hoping the BBC will show it again. They are showing his 1977 OGWT concert next week.

I'll stick Little Sister up just for you. Give me a day or two.
