ABOUT:
Bill Kirchen, Andy Stein, John Tichy and Buffalo Bruce Barlow, with Paul Revelli, Peter Siegel and special guest Floyd Domino.
Grammy nominated guitarist, singer and songwriter Bill Kirchen has been called a “Titan of the Telecaster” by Guitar Player Magazine, “an American treasure” and “one of our best” by Rolling Stone Magazine. Kirchen co-founded the original Americana band, Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen. His telecaster licks drove their “Hot Rod Lincoln” into the Top Ten of 1972. He has recorded and/or played guitar live with Hoyt Axton, Elvis Costello, Hazel Dickens, Bo Diddley, Redd Volkaert, GE Smith, Sammy Hagar, Emmylou Harris, Linda Rondstadt, Dan Hicks, Nick Lowe, Maria Muldaur, Doug Sahm, Danny Gatton, Gene Vincent and Link Wray. Commander Cody album Live From Deep in the Heart of Texas, made Rolling Stone’s list of the “100 Best Albums of All Time.” Bill has made 15 CDs with his own post-Cody bands,
John Tichy, Ph.D., Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, is the Founding Father of the Lost Planet Airmen, playing with George Frayne, aka Commander Cody, in Ann Arbor since the early 1960’s. With a long list of publications and research for the National Science Foundation and NASA, he also continues to gig steadily, presumably with the research objective of rocking your ass off. Tichy is listed in the Who’s Who in Rock & Roll (1996) and the Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll (1998) for his work as singer, songwriter and guitarist.
Buffalo Bruce Barlow, bass player with Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen, plays bues, rock ’n’ roll, country & Western, Western Swing, and a whole lot of boogie woogie. He turned down the nascent Little Feat in 1969 to join us in Commander Cody On every CC and his LPA album. He’s played with Chicago bluesmen Magic Sam, Luther Allison, Sam Lay, Elvin Bishop, James Cotton, Charlie Musselwhite, Matt Guitar Murphy, Albert Collins, John Lee Hooker, Byrds frontman Roger McGuinn’s Thunderbyrd and hit singer-songwriter Hoyt Axton.
Andy Stein: Our 2-time Grammy winner joined Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen in 1968 when Kirchen spotted him jamming at a coffee house with future Prairie Home Companion original Bill Hinkley. Two decades later Andy began his 22 year run on that show’s weekly national broadcasts with Garrison Keillor. Post CC & his LPA, Andy continued his unique quadruple-threat career, playing, writing and arranging for top names in Pop, Jazz, Classical and Country fields. Here are a few: Bob Dylan, Sir Paul McCartney, Wynton Marsalis, Jon Hendricks, Aretha Franklin, Madonna, Mariah Carey, Ray Charles, B. B. King, Tony Bennett, Carole King, James Taylor, Michael Jackson, Merle Haggard, Placido Domingo, Itzhak Perlman etc. Andy sez: “But right now I’m right here back with my old buddies. The Best.”

Paul Revelli: drums with Elvin Bishop, Maria Muldaur, Chuck Prophet, Austin deLone
