Telecaster master Bill Kirchen was right there at the BIG BANG of Ameri-
cana as a founder member of Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen
in 1967. Playing guitar has been his only job ever since.
Over a ten-year period commencing in 2006, he made albums exclusively at
Proper Records’ Specific Sound studio in London – until it was demolished
when
we moved premises. This limited-edition vinyl album contains a selection of
highlights from the period. (All thirty-eight tracks including some bonus
mate-
rial are available on a two-CD set).
Guests include Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello, Dan Hicks, Maria Muldaur and Aus-tin
De Lone
