Bill Kirchen: Hot Rod Lincoln
In 1972, Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen recorded a song written in 1955 by Charlie Ryan and W. S. Stevenson. A young guitarist named Bill Kirchen was in the band at that time and played the lead guitar part on the song . “Hot Rod Lincoln,” a rockabilly song from the fifties, became a top ten hit for Commander Cody at the dawn of of the disco era.
Here is a clip of Bill Kirchen playing “Hot Rod Lincoln” at the Philadelphia Folk Festival. Bill has added a few things to the song along the way.
