| rock, rockabilly, rhythm & blues, country: New CD, M- condition (shopworn) While Commander Cody is largely thought of as an early- to- mid-'70s phenomenon, he and his loyal troops kept performing and recording their blend of Western swing, rockabilly, and boogie throughout the '80s and '90s. Some of their best latter-day recordings are on the Relix label, and this compilation draws exclusively from those albums. The band's sound remained basically unchanged over the years, and they kept playing their best-known songs well into the '90s, which allows for those chestnuts to be included here in the form of live recordings. The Commander show of his considerable boogie-woogie piano chops on "Beat Me Daddy (Eight to the Bar)" and the boys sound as fresh as ever on the group's biggest hit, the country/rockabilly car song "Hot Rod Lincoln." One of the reasons Cody and company don't sound dated even decades after their "vintage" period is that they were practitioners of an anachronistic mix of styles to begin with. That mix sounds fully captivating on this compilation. | |||||

1993 | |
| rock, rockabilly, rhythm & blues, country: New CD, M- condition (shopworn) This rare CD was compiled from the master tapes from WNEW-FM in New York, which aired this performance in March 1975. This 1975 live recording from New York City finds the Commander and company at the peak of both their powers and their popularity. In the early- to mid-'70s, their combination of stoner/hippie image with a fairly traditional sound incorporating Western swing, honky-tonk, and boogie-woogie (not unlike Asleep at the Wheel) endeared them to freaks and hardcore country fans alike. A prime example of the band's cross-cultural appeal is "Seeds & Stems Again Blues," where marijuana meets the Opry. "It Should Have Been Me" emphasizes the swing/jump-blues side of the band's musical personality, while "Beat Me Daddy (Eight to the Bar) displays their fondness for boogie-woogie and gives the Commander a chance to show off his formidable piano chops. "Honky Tonk Music" shows that, like any country band worth its salt, they know their way around a barroom weeper. The band was at its best live, as shown here by the interaction with the audience and the display of old-school showmanship that extends to such crowd-pleasing oddities as a Gypsy violin interlude. There are several live Commander Cody albums available, but this one is notable for hailing from a golden era in the group's history. | |||||
