Your best bet might be to first lay down an erosion control blanket like

Curlex, through which you can then plant your groundcover. The blanket will
stabilize the soil until the roots can spread enough to do the job.

Never heard of it, but assume that it is a fiber material that will decompose
once roots are established. Is it something that most nurseries are likely to
have?

Still would like to know what ground cover to plant on it.

Can't remember the name on the book but its real common. They
publish books on Annuals, Perennials, Bedding Plants, Trees, Shrubs
etc and have one called Ground Covers. My library carries them all,
about 5x8 in size & 1"+ thick. Good pictures and info etc for the
different zones.
What zone are you in as that makes a big difference on what'll grow
and what won't.
