Ry Cooder is celebrating his 77th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed musicians of his generation.
Popular musician Ry Cooder (Pull Up Some Dust and Sit Down, Bop till You Drop, Chicken Skin Music, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 77th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Cooder, a cultural icon
Born Ryland Peter Cooder in Los Angeles on March 15, 1947, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Cooder's not just a great musician, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Ry hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Ry Cooder as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 77.
Happy Birthday, Ry, you're the best!
