2015 - Ry Cooder and his son Joachim Cooder produced Angeleno. Normally not a big fan of country flirting with Mexican music, but Ry and Sam sure got it right with this one. Great songs, wonderful vocal and instrumental work. Sounds really good too! "Jesus take the wheel," sings Outlaw on the shuffling honky-tonk waltz of the same title, "and drive me to a bar" — there's plenty of weepy steel guitar here, but a sense of humor, too. He pulls from California's Bakersfield past, the urban mariachi tradition of East L.A. and the broken fantasy of Hollywood life for Angeleno, the singer's Ry Cooder-produced debut. (Noak Westerberg)
