A few months ago, a good friend of mine turned me on to this band.

He heard them on XM and bought their live album Back To Tulsa and told me that I just had to hear these guys. We gave it a listen over beer and a couple shots.

One week later, I had my own copy of Back To Tulsa/ courtesy of Amazon.

Next up was the studio album Happiness and All The Other Things. To say it blew me away would be an understatement .

I now own :

Cross Canadian Ragweed
Soul Gravy
Garage
Back To Tulsa
Mission California
Happiness and All the Other Things

Great , underappreciated band. I love these guys !

Anyone else ?

I own the Soul Gravy live CD/DVD combo. I like it a lot but for me they are not in the "they blew me away category" so to speak.

They have a few other releases not in your collection yet:

Live and loud at the wormy dog saloon [CD] [2000]
Highway 377 [CD] [2001]
Back to Tulsa: live and loud at cain's ballroom [DVD] [2006]

Bandleader Cody Canada now has a new band called "The Departed" (after Cross Canadian Ragweed disbanded):

This is indian land [CD] [2011]
Adventus [CD] (2012)
Hippielovepunk [CD] [2015]

And there's Cody Canada's solo album "Some Old, Some New, Maybe A Cover Or Two" in 2013.
An accoustic release in the style of the show "Storytellers".

Back To Tulsa is great and I do own it.

Soul Gravy is very good but Happiness and All Good Things is actually the one that really blew me away. Many feel that it is their best .

Nice to see that someone from across the pond has heard of them as well as actually HEARD them ..:D
