The enthusiastic English crowd eats up the group's unique blend of boogie-woogie, rockabilly, Western swing, and honky-tonk. By this time, the group had been together long enough to hone their arrangements to a fine point, but were still enjoying the last wave of their initial flush of success. Consequently, Cody and company are at their tightest here, but still full of energy and enthusiasm. Clocking in with 19 tracks, this is the longest of the band's many live albums, giving listeners a chance to experience the full breadth of the Commander's varied sound. The well-known tunes like "Hot Rod Lincoln" and "Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)" brush shoulders with Bob Wills tunes ("San Antonio Rose," "My Window Faces the South") and classic rockabilly ("Milkcow Blues").
