ROB SEZ: I featured Daniel's splendid band Cosmic Rough Riders last year at the blog. (If you don't know about CRR, rush over HERE to check them out. If you like a lot of the bands at Repercussion, you'll thank me.) Daniel's solo work is in line with what makes CRR worth a long listen: sunny melodies, intelligent lyrics and a 1970s California sound (think Buffalo Springfield, CSNY, The Byrds) re-fashioned by way of Glasgow. MEGA THANKS to Angelo of Powerpop Criminals, where the 2008 show was first shared, and to geomck for sharing the 2009 live set.

ROB SEZ: Cosmic Rough Riders — wow! Daniel Wylie and collaborator Stephen Fleming took the basic sounds of 1970s West Coast pop & rock (think Buffalo Springfield, CSNY, The Byrds) and added terrific melodies and a Glasgow point of view. What they created in the late 1990s was worthy of much broader acclaim & fame than they actually found. In 2002, musical differences prompted Wylie to leave the band to pursue a solo career. The group kept on with Fleming becoming lead vocalist and chief songwriter. Eventually, amends were made. By 2015, the group released an album credited to "Daniel Wylie's Cosmic Rough Riders." There's precious little live material by CRR in circulation, so please enjoy these and the mystery bonus share. Kudos to Klasw for sharing the Reading 2001 live set & to KCRW for the 2004 session.
