Commander Cody

The Commander has left us at 77. I wonder what St. Peter said to him at the Pearly Gates.

Bill's live version is fantastic, playing solos in a plethora of styles.

Anyone who doesn't enjoy "Seeds And Stems (Again)" is a square, man. How many bands in '71 were hip enough to record Ronnie Self's Rockabilly classic "Home In My Hand"? Only they and NRBQ. Dave Edmunds recorded it too, but not until the 80's.
