Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 Swingin', dandin' rock and boogie woogie
Submitted on: 2008-10-12 |

| Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airmen were one of the leading small venue bands that played rock with a mix of Texas Swing style, along with boogie woogie and other dancin' beats. This is one of their most outstanding efforts. The band's live albums are their best, as the studio works do not capture the party atmosphere with which the band played. This reviewer has nearly all of the band's tunes, either on vinyl recordings or on CD and considers this one to be among the two best, the other being another live recording, Live From Deep in the Heart of Texas. The selection of tunes in this recording includes some of the band's best known works. Their version of Smoke, Smoke, Smoke (that cigarette)! by Merle Travis became an exceptionally popular recording on radio, especially on college radio stations. The band originally came from Michigan, founded by George Frayne (Cody -- the piano player). They moved their locus of activity to the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1970's, and played exceptionally frequently in the local bars surrounding local college campuses. Enjoy this one -- it's one of the best! |

| Fantastic fun swang rock.These guys were the hilt in the day.I saw them live in Phoenix,Arizona about 1979 and they tore the place up and left everyone just devastated and ripped.Most people had to crawl out of there.I have seen over 50 groups in the late 70's early 80's and by far these guys put on the best show I have ever seen.If your a trucker over 50 , you probably should buy this.If you are younger...sorry ...you missed out on history but thanks to Amazon,here is a piece of it.Enjoy ! ! |

A classic!

| I listened to the Commander all thru college. Listening again brought back great memories. Simply one heck of a fun album - classic country rock and roll. Not dinner music, but you can't beat it with a beer in one hand and pool cue in the other. |

Rockin' That Boogie

| Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen are a tremendously entertaining band, so it follows that the live version of one of their shows is going to be a lot of fun. This album does not disappoint in any way; the ad-libs in their stage show are funny, the country and western swing music is excellent and the narration between the songs is very entertaining. Although the show took place more than thirty years ago, the songs still sound fresh, and the CD is still well worth the price. |
