Rock's punk/new wave boom of the late 1970s and early '80s was a true grassroots movement born largely out of frustration and disgust with the perceived excesses of rock's then status quo. The resulting music was sometimes ironically reactionary, if nothing else, embracing the more direct musical essence of the '50s and '60s. But few took the notion to the extremes of Stray Cats Brian Setzer, Lee Rocker, and Slim Jim Phantom, the most popular rockabilly revival band to ever emerge from, of all places, Long Island. This set documents the Cats' brief heyday and its faithful aping of Carl Perkins, Eddie Cochran, and Gene Vincent. And if his vocal chops sometimes didn't match the quality of his fiery, often inspired guitar licks, musical evangelist Setzer made up for his shortcomings with sheer exuberant devotion to the genre and its godfathers. The hits are all here, along with some revealing album cuts, rarities, and portions of a 1982 live broadcast that display the Cats' considerable live charms. And if this set makes you yearn for some real original '50s rockabilly, nothing would make Setzer and company happier. Jerry McCulleyCustomer Reviews:

Most of their songs were highly derivative, but they have worn well and sound as good as they did 20 years ago. This is a fine introduction to their music and encompasses all of their great songs.

Great Setlist & Great Sound.......2007-05-09
Stray Cats Strut.......2006-03-04
Back Together.......2006-01-21
This album is full of great music and hot guitar licks from the very first song to the very last.
The Highlights are, Rumble in Brixton, which sets the pace.
Their classic, Stray Cat Strut is another great entry.
Sleepwalk is my personal favorite, with some of the hottest guitar licks you will ever hear.
Over the course of the album he does several early Elvis songs including, My Baby Left Me, That's Alright Mama, Good Rockin Tonight.
You also hear his classic, Rock this town, Sexy and 17, and the Eddie Cochoran classic, 20 Flight Rock.
Fishnet Stockings and Runaway Boys also appear on this CD.
Brian Setzer has become the Jimi Hendrix of Rockabilly.
Setzer has established himself as one of the finest guitarists on the planet. It is really nice to hear Rockabilly with a guitar player of this magnitude, treating us to sizzling hot licks.......If you dont buy this you are missing out.
Man, am I glad they did this!.......2005-02-26
A Rockin' Good Time Glorious Evening! .......2004-12-26
Stray Cats were truly glorious that night - from the opening shots of "Rumble In Brighton" (with the obvious but still too good an oppurtunity to be missed final chorus of "Rumble In Brixton") thru a few well selected covers & a number of Stray Cat's originals - Its just a MUST have.
If you compare the songs here to the original recordings (Brighton, Radio, Strut, Rock This Town, Runaway Boys etc etc) the sound on the night - and subsequently this disc - is really raw and ballsy.
I personally was never potty on "Something's Wrong With My Radio" - but on the night I thought it was fantastic, and listening again to this CD hasnt done a thing to change my mind.
"Please Dont Touch" (probably most famous for the version by Motorhead & Girlschool) was another standout point. But the standout points are everywhere. Couple of other great Covers "Good Rocking Tonight" - "20 Flight Rock" are well worth a mention.
The playing is exceptional - guitar bass & drums only, and yet at times they were making more racket than Iron Maiden (and thats remotely intended as an insult to either band). Lee Rocker was better than ever, Slim Jim standing on the Bass and pounding at the snare as if his life depended on it (yet still cooler than ice) & Mr Setzer, well!
This disc also contains a solitary single new recording which is great, but there's no doubt you are just tempted to go back and randomly select any of the live tracks). Its a double disc, without the 1 studio it would have fit onto a single disc.
It was a brilliant night - and this double disc captures it perfectly. No Stray Cats fan will be disappointed.

The Original Classic Album that Started a Rockabilly Revolution. Our Protagonists from New York Crossed the Pond to Merry Ole England to Generate a Buzz in the Clubs Suffering from the Malaise of Punk and in the Throes of a Ska Revival. So Why Not Original American Rock N Roll? Instead of the Brits Nicking it and Selling Back to the Us, the Us Went to the Brits who Still Sold it Back to the Us in Turn, as this Album was Popular in the UK in 1980 and an American Recording Didn't Appear Til 1982. Dave Edmunds was a Natural Fit as Producer and the Trio Took the Isle by Storm. Here was Old Style Rock with a Punk Sensibility. The Rest is History. This Original Album Includes "Storm the Embassy", a Political Sign of the Times and "Ubangi Stomp" and "Crawl Up and Die".Customer Reviews:
