In the 1970s, I loved Commander Cody. Also Dan Hicks and his Hotlicks, Asleep at the Wheel when Chris O’Connell was in the band, Gram Parsons, young Emmy Lou Harris, and the list goes on. Cosmic Cowboys ruled.
Great list. Saw Dan Hicks live in a small club in Cambridge around 1982.
Right on!!

Chris O’Connell was terrific with AATW.
RIP George Frayne. First heard the Commander in 71. Been a fan ever since.
Anyone who didn't have a big smile on their face after one of the Commander's shows was at the wrong show. R.I.P. Commander.
Pawsohfuckentively 😂
Indeed he was simply outstanding and all of them together off the charts
Opened my college radio show every night with Comander Cody and ended the show with Boz Scaggs before he was "famous." So much great music in the late sixties and early 70's.
The group's leader and co-founder was pianist and vocalist George Frayne IV, alias Commander Cody (born July 19, 1944 in Boise, Idaho, died September 26, 2021 in Saratoga Springs, New York).[3]
The Good Commander is still doing it here in Upstate NY. Good dude. A true artist.
Good to hear. Saw him many times in clubs (Palomino) with the Lost Planet Airmen in the Los Angeles area back in the '70's. Always a great show.
I am so happy to hear that! Been a big fan since i 1st heard this song in 1971. I keep up w/Bill Kirchen some & had worried about the Commander. Seen them 4 times back in the day .Thank you
@@EarlSChristy check out his Facebook page..He lives in Saratoga Springs.
Miss him here in the lower 45
My next door neighbor growing up is Commander Cody's cousin. We got some good seats a few times to see them.
I remember my parents a couple of hippies wore out a few albums I believe the talent here is very very underrated if this don’t get you moving you may not have a pulse , love some Commander Cody and the lost planet airmen
Best boogie band ever.
Nice seeing little Nicolette Larson.
1977, the yr I finished High School. Seems like a very long time ago but music like this is timeless. Thx for posting.
I first saw Commander Cody in Minneapolis in the early 70's when they opened for New Riders of the Purple Sage. About a year later they were back, this time as the main band at a theater in the round venue and their opening performer was a guy I had never heard of: Hoyt Axton. A bunch of electric brownies made for an incredible, unforgettable evening.
Oh come on now! Who are the 24 who dont like this?? Are they nuts? Classic!
they are idiots, they probably like Rap instead
So busy rocking they accidentally pushed the wrong button
I just found commander Cody “ozone” album for ten bucks at my local record store, great album! I’m 38 and feel my generation missed out on creative bands like this. I think the drugs were better back then.
The quality was definitely better and you could trust people not too give you bad dope oh wow I miss the 80 s it was our 70 s good paper good shrooms good reefer man oh man the music was the best saw all the big bands back in the day
Cheaper too.
Just had a friend buy me a cd of country casanova for almost $100.00 on Amazon
ya you missed all the fun
Yep, this was a great time for music, but of course you realize that Commander Cody was reprising this song that was originally recorded in 1940: th-cam.com/video/G7mYnyC02IE/w-d-xo.html
The Good Commander lived not many miles from me. A sad passing for all. RIP.
One of the MOST entertaining Bands I've ever seen or heard
R.I.P. Commander !!! Thank you for the good times spent listening to you and the concerts I was able to attend. LP's are still on the shelves. I'll dust them off!
Nicolette was such a doll.
Indeed!
RIP Commander, you rocked and rolled and countried and boogie woogied and all sorts of things.
Credits for shooting this go to the team of which I was a part, Monarch Performance Video, with John Scher's low budget B&W cameras, but we had a blast. And I loved every minute of the ol' Commander, even though, yeah, the whole band wasn't quite as good as the more original version (of the Lost Planet Airmen, I mean). But with Nicolette singing, and George pounding those ivories, it was still pretty good.
Mr. Drewke. It's more than ' pretty good 'it's excellent. Greetings from Ireland
This is the most fun, entertaining performance of Beat Me Daddy Eight to the Bar that I’ve ever seen. Thank you!
@@altereddogma , thanks.
Who is the singer next to Nicolette?
Love the Commander and the Airmen ! You’ll only hear this once in your lifetime, to have experienced a live show, ecstasy !
Saw them live in Lawrence,Ks.,at the Red Dog Saloon,in 1972.
A couple of times @ the old Cowtown Ballroom/KC. What a blast!
Great live version!!!🤩
Always a show when The Commander was on stage “ or off stage” RIP buddy.
I had the privilege of seeing the Commander Cody band at Manny's Car Wash in NYC - what a fun night! I've seen thousands of live acts, but NONE that had more fun on stage. RIP George.
Capt. Blackheart Charlie
Key West
Bobby "Blue" Black on the steel. Great keys by the Commander.
That my friends is some good baby boomer music which you won't find today like that
God I just loved these guys! Fantastic band to dance to!!! Ah the good ole days!
Awesome, had the honor to meet all of them and they are a great group of guys and have no pretense, they are what you see!!!!!!
4 sure! Never met them but @ festival in WV about '73' saw Billy C Walking by himself smoking a joint n the little town of Glenville WV .
Riding A Panhead 12 Over Front End No Front Brake Jockey Shift ,in The Rain 300 MilesTo Party With You All Is One Of My Favorite Memories...Rest In Peace George...!!!!
you steel my bike ?? ha
Commander C can play anything. Huge fan
Just can't have too much fun!!!!!
You can go to jail for having too much fun!
@@rockinredneck57that's news to me
One of my favs… Nicolette Larson on backing vocal
I was wondering if that was her!
Don't know her, tall or short woman ?
@@pete3883 short woman, long hair
Who's the other woman?
RIP Commander. Thanks for all the good times.
Rock'nest band EVER !
R.I.P. Commander, sharing the big stage with Nicolette Larson again.
To me when I hear these songs just kinda feels they are about the Commander FEEL GOOD MUSIC AT ITS FINEST
Fats Waller barrell-roll piano, 40's boogie-woogie sax, early 70's CW pedal steel played by a hippie big band. Yeah, that'll do.
Fats Waller did not play like this. Never. Nor did he ever perform / record this song. Fats was a genius, but he played Stride Jazz Piano, NOT boogie-woogie. Pete Johnson, Albert Ammons, and Meade Lux-Lewis - 3 guys who played this style of piano and therefore REALLY invented rock'n'roll - in the 1930's ! - did.
I think the rest of us got what you meant Kevin.
What fun! I still have the 45 I bought in 7th grade.
There's a lot of renditions of this song, but this has it all. Thanks, George.
RIP Commander. You never had too much fun!!
One of my favorite performances!!
Dang, loved listening to these guys when I went to college in the early 70s. They still bring a smile to my face to this day.
Best bar band ever.
Great boogie woogie. Saw them that same year in Vancouver B.C.. Lived in Bellingham, Washington, 🇺🇸
Still holds up
Am 64 and ADHA and been trying to remember to play the commander for some my newer thirty something new friends as widower year this past 28 dec.
Wise up them youngins brother, it's good to know the Commander's
still got the ozone covered
My condolences regarding the loss of your wife. It’s good you are socializing and making new friends.
This is a great song/performance.
An all-time favorite!
I saw him pounding those keys behind his back and he never missed a beat! Infuckingcredible!
Man these guys were great bar bands! Seen them in oshkosh wis several times!
Heavens to Freddie Slack ! The Commander and his bodacious band really know how to boogie ! Love it ! THANKS for sharing this wonderful "blast from the past" with us !! :-)
You're welcome.

@@namakulaharret5160 Sad news indeed. Thank you very much for the link. May George rest in eternal bliss. :-(
This lives on forever gotta love some swing no matter the Venue , dome classic right here
Everytime he came to Colorado me and my friend Mark would see himm. Everyone would take the seats in the front. We alwsys made sure to seat on the side where we could watch Georges hands, elbows , knuck lo es p lo ay the keys. Always had s great great time. RIP Mark
Gary Cisco on Saxophone. (1950 - 1990) RIP
My parents played them on Vinyl all the time , I guess they had some good taste
Now my adult children are playing them on my old vinyls, as well as the rest of both their parents collections from the late-1960s through the mid-to-late-1980s. They bought a record player just to play our record collections.
Saw them in the mid to late 90's uptown NYC on my Bday that was the best present I ever got. The fellas were smokin it out and the Commander said HOW--DEEEEE. Man are they great!!!!
RIP you hot rod Lincoln.
I saw the Commander and the Airplane and was hooked ever since.
Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airmen......I think that's how they were billed when I first saw them at Auburn University
Rest in peace George, you sure put the smoke in those smoky honky tonks.
oh..that happy sound!!
We Got A Live One is the best party album ever
The good Commander!
Sax man Andy Stein went on to a long gig with Guys All Star Shoe Band on Prarie Home Companion.
Rest in Peace, George! Thanks for the best of times!
With Nicolette . . . Amazing . . . RIP
Do you know who the other lady singer was on this ?
I believe the other singer with Nicollette is her pal Chandra Penny. Don't know too much else about her.
Awesome!
Saw George and his band play in Erie PA. The old piano pounder was in great form.
I loved Commander Cody. R.I.P.
..my dad had Commander Cody on a cassette that he brought with him, mom and my two brothers when then came to visit me in Germany 50 years ago in 1972...which was kinda strange...he allegedly did like that kind of music...or at least wouldn't allow it in the house....I was lucky...I was 5000 miles away..I voukd listen to whstever I liked in the army...great memories...
The good ol days !
What a evolution of evolving from 64thru the present every year these guys have blown me away.with their maturity they remain so relevant and never cease to perform in a tighter and tighter perfectly spun entertainment icons I would be hard pressed tó pick a song from every album into a playlist so many multiple chart busters songs on some and bside gems that charts completely missed.I will include in my playlist of stones greatest.gonna take a lot of time as they have a few albums that I may not even know bout .
RIP Commander .You where one of the best
I never get tired of the Commander
Those cats can really swing.
We called this " jamming " ...just play! So good. Miss this!
The 70's are still Hazy but the Light came on. Got here from Watching an old 50's movie. Guess which one. Lost Planet Airmen.
Great video.
One of the greatest band's no doubt
I agree
Saw their last show in Berkeley before they moved to Texas -- great energy, Billy C. Farlow flailing away on an ES-335 that wasn't plugged in, just a terrific bar band. Also saw the New Riders of the Purple Sage some time in the mid-70s opening for the Beach Boys and the Dead at the Oakland baseball stadium when they had the Commander come out to play on "Dim Lights, Thick Smoke" --- obviously a memorable treat from a few decades ago.
Didn't Nicolette Larson once work at the Tower Records on Telegraph in Berkeley?
Oh u r lucky! Both such talented bands!
First NRPS album had Jerry Garcia, Mickey Hart and Commander Cody
@@kurtschultz8199 Forgot that -- good observation. (Am now thinking Larson was at Discount Records on Tele; Tower was around the corner on Durant.)
Thank you. Buff you are great Love ya.
I LOVED ALL MUSIC HE &THE BAND BLESSED US WITH!!! HE & I shared about 45min. of conservation, just before ending it HE signed my right shoulder & I got it inked in . We both were a "tad" bit over line. There was a lot of space in front of the stage where I danced my ass off.I was wearing white western shirt with pipeing & blooming cactus embroidery on it +y camine boots wth built up soles & heels . Command loved it so did I !!! I tried to compliment Him & the band not distract from them /their show. Anyhoo The Commander said he enjoyed it much. I was lucky to see them several times! Steelin' steelin' at the Seven Eleven
!!! Show 'em how to Boogie in Heven !!!
Can't remember how many times I saw CC and his LPA--first was at Northwestern University. Last time I saw him was 2006 playing on a portable keyboard in a hotel bar in Springfield, IL.
Before we all got old...
Cool blues!
Not blues....swing.
Saw him at whisky bones in rochester Minnesota talked to him at the bar very down to earth friendly no ego at all
This is what I'm talkin' 'bout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved the Big 10 circuit in the 70's.
The one thing I love besides jazz is boogie. :D
Boogie is a jazz style.
Great band and song ! Nicolette Larson too !!❤
Commander checked out today. Boogie in the sky.
Best version of this song ever :)
I saw the Commander at the Last Annual May Day Fest in Northampton Mass
Fabulous! Love CC and the lost planet Airmen .
I have seen them many many times in Ann Arbor,MI......
Nice! Nicolette Larson on back-up vocals....
Thanks. Can you name the other lady singer ?
@@ignorecorporatenews ...I cannot. :-(
There are so many great musicians who never got famous or made good money. I would rank Nicolette Larson right up there. I would love to know who the other excellent singer may have been.
Charra Penny
Hot stuff man!
Great
I love Nicolette, any man that is half of one would.. She's a doll. She also was the one destined to be a star. That part is fairly obvious.. I hate so much her health failed. I'm proud that Bobby Black made it into the steel guitar hall of fame. The others however much I loved um, ran the course as expected. That's usually how it kinda winds down and goes in this line of business.
Tylenol, the Liver Killer
saw the re-united band in Berkeley, sans the Commander hisself, and they totally could do it -- OMG, they rocked the house, it was amazing.
Saw Bobby Black recently, with the Saddle Cats, in Berkeley.
The King of Dieselbilly, Bill Kirchen is still alive and playing.
saw him so many times and finally ended up having pizza with him at My Fathers Place in Roslyn, NY after I realized I was working with his Dad who was a producer
Do miss Billy C. Andy Kirchen Tichy and the boys.
The best version of the song is from the 40s but I first heard this song and learned to play it from their 1972 Album.
I Know and Love this song, but I never
heard this before!! Too damn Kool!
Me Likey! Next stop.... Dan Hicks and Company... Noice. Rock On!!
Always loved the way grown ass women were in the day
