"Paradise and Lunch" is the fourth album by roots rock legend Ry Cooder, released in 1974. The album contains a mix of jazz, blues and roots music led by Cooder's guitar and is considered by many the crowning achievement of Ry Cooder's career. The final track, "Diddy Wah Diddy," showcases a memorable duet between Cooder and legendary jazz pianist Earl "Fatha" Hines.
