And I'm all over the Ry Cooder recommendation. If only I could transport back to OK in the 1970's for a beer with Keltner and Harrison. Namaste, Music Junkie at Fusion 45.

However, my favorite work of his is with Ry Cooder. Sure, he can lay down a great rock beat. But with Ry, he is crazy funky. Give a listen to just about any cut on Ry's album "Get Rhythm". I recommend "Let's Have A Ball" or "All Shook Up". In any event, you can't go wrong with Mr. K! I totally agree that Jim Keltner is the best drummer out there.

She asked me if I had ever heard of Jim Keltner..."Had I?!" I practically screamed...I could not believe it. Later that week she proved it (not that she would have lied)...she brought in some plain old Kodak snap shots of a backyard party at her folks home in Oklahoma in the mid 1970's. There were her parents sitting there drinking beer with Jim Keltner....oh yeah...also in the pics was some guy named George Harrison!! How freaky it was to see one of the most famous and most photographed guys in the world in a pic I had (nor anyone outside of this womans family) had seen before.
