The Stray Cats is a rockabilly band first formed in 1979 by guitarist/vocalist Brian Setzer with school friends Lee Rocker (born Leon Drucker) and Slim Jim Phantom (born James McDonnell). The group had several hit singles in the U.K. and the U.S. during the early 1980s. After their first break-up in 1984, the band has reunited off-and-on ever since; most recently (in 2004) they released a Live in Brixton album of live versions of many of their early songs. Formation and rapid U.K. success The Stray Cats was formed in the Long Island town of Massapequa, New York. Their retro 1950s sound didn"t go over well, so in the summer of 1980, the group headed to England, where a rockabilly revival movement was beginning to emerge. After a gig in London, the Stray Cats met producer Dave Edmunds, well known as a roots rock enthusiast for his work with Rockpile and as a solo artist. Edmunds offered to work with the group, and they entered the studio to record their self-titled debut album, released in England in 1981 on Arista Records. They were popular immediately, scoring three straight hits that year with "Runaway Boys," "Rock This Town," and "Stray Cat Strut." The follow-up, Gonna Ball, wasn"t as well received, and stung by the negative reviews, Stray Cats decided to return to the States and make a go of it. Return to the U.S. The Stray Cats signed with EMI America and in 1982 released their U.S. debut, Built for Speed, compiled from their two British LPs. Helped by extensive airplay on the newly-launched MTV, "Rock This Town" and "Stray Cat Strut" both hit the American Top Ten, over a year after their British chart peaks. As a result, Built for Speed was a left-field smash, and the Stray Cats were seen as avatars of retro style.T-Shirts Hoodies Sweatshirts Longsleeve tshirts, Lycra tops, Punk Rock Tshirts,at RockTshirtsPunk.com punk clothes, Heavy Metal T shirts, Emo Clothing, Goth clothes, Band T-shirts, Music Tshirts, rock t-shirts, Punk rock T-shirts, Punk rock Hoodies, Rock Hoodies, Cool t shirts, Punk Rock Cool clothes, Oi t-sirts Classic Rock Clothing 60s-70s-80s-90s Alternative Modern Pop Rock Music, Concert Wear Clothing.
