Not Seeking Approval 



Which is of course the very central nature of your ego-led profession is doing? You make music and expect applause otherwise you wouldn’t tour now would you?!. Awful brow beating dangerous mis-informed ignorant rambling bile . . . . . .I brought to mind the old adage better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt! Wonder if like your old chum and fellow ignoramus Eric Clapptout you took your shots anyway!?[Eric was back in the traces three weeks after having his vaccines which he claimed were horrific!)😂


Wiki about covers it:


While the musicianship and sound of the album was generally well-received by critics, the lyrical subject matter of COVID-19 denialism was widely criticised. In The Arts Desk, Nick Hasted scored it two out of five stars, accused the artist of "monomania", and called the album "egocentric, pernicious, and already outdated". 
However, he noted that select tracks were of a high quality.[2] AllMusic Guide awarded it two and a half out of five stars, with Stephen Thomas Erlewine finding Morrison "doubling down on all of his gripes", and concluding that the resultant "blend of anodyne R&B and anger makes for one of the odder albums" in his catalogue.[1]  
In his Pop Medicine column on MedPage Today, Dr. Arthur Lazarus praised the "first-rate" music, but ultimately dismissed the album as a "self-absorbed descent into COVID lunacy". He condemned Morrison for ignoring scientific facts, seeing the pandemic in an egocentric manner, and speaking out against the media while benefiting from its attentions.[3]

Tell  it to Fiona Whelan-Prine, tell it to the families of the 7.11 MILLION people who died from the disease!!

 What’s it Gonna take? YOU to wake up from your brainwashing and do your job and entertain the masses with love songs and a pretty ditty and keep your homegrown political ignorant ill informed claptrap to yourself. Read a book! 

Total and complete drivel -5 ⭐️

Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen - Ebbets Field, Denver, CO, USA 11th August 1973 | Albums That Should Exist

 Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen - Ebbets Field, Denver, CO, 8-11-1973

Paul says: Here's another Ebbets Field radio broadcast. This one features Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen.

The Wikipedia entry intro is badly written, so I'll try to come up with my own summary. This band was led by pianist and vocalist George Frayne IV, a.k.a. Commander Cody. The band was formed in 1967, but they didn't release their debut album until 1971. Once they did, it contained a surprise hit with the song "Hot Rod Lincoln," which made it all the way to the Top Ten in the U.S. singles chart. It was a surprise hit because it was a cover of an obscure 1950s song, and the 1950s style was very much out of step with the musical trends of 1971. 

Unfortunately, it would prove to be their only hit. The band broke up in 1977. However, Frayne continued to make a lot more music using the "Commander Cody" name. He died in 2021.

Although Wikipedia didn't have a good intro for this band, it does have a good paragraph explaining the band's style. So I'll quote that here: "[the band's] style was built on the foundation of country music, which the band fused with boogie woogie, rock and roll, rhythm and blues, Western swing and jazz, which Classic Rock said resulted in 'a counter-cultural twist to the Nashville sound.' Relix said that the band 'tossed together rockabilly, blues, country, boogie-woogie, Western swing and whatever else came their way.' Tinnitist called the band 'one of the more interesting bands of the hippie era, fusing county, rockabilly, western swing, jump blues, and more into an infectious amalgam that set the table for outfits like NRBQ.'"

The music is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent. 

This album is 58 minutes long.
