Commander Cody-Too Much Fun

Too Much fun
Just bought this CD & I must say Commander Cody and the Airmen are a really good band! Their mix of boogie/woogie & western swing is very catchy & to think many of these cuts were recorded years ago. Check out their version of Smoke, Smoke, Smoke, which IMHO is superior to Asleep at the Wheels. Ray Benson's Hot Rod Lincoln version is almost a note by note copy of Bill Kirchen's with CC&LPAM. For the price this CD is a good deal.    This band takes some getting used too, the whole swing thing is not as pleasent sounding as traditional country rock like Pure Prairie League
