Search - Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen :: Live from Armadillo World HQ 1973 & Capitol Theatre 1975

Commander Cody and his lost Planet Airmen were one of the great Roots music groups of the late 1960s and 1970s. They laid the groundwork for what would come to be known as the Americana genre. The Airmen did it all, Boogie-Woogie, Country & Western, Blues, Swing, and Classic Rock and Roll. The group moved to San Francisco in the summer of 1969 and was almost immediately established as a force to be reckoned with. They regularly played The Fillmore and the Family Dog as well as many other venues and outdoor shows. Their debut album, Lost in the Ozone (featuring cover art by Frayne), was brimming over with great songs and one Hot Rod Lincoln , hit number 9 in the pop charts the following year.

The first CD in this set is a live show from the famous Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin, Texas from 1973. The second CD in this set is a previously unreleased concert recorded at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, in May 1975 and is one of the last great recordings by the classic line-up of Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen. Both shows have been digitally remastered and are housed in deluxe digipak format with booklet featuring extensive liner notation and previously unpublished photos.
