I wrote a Setzer tribute song called This Kitten is Smitten. In it I reference 15 Setzer/Cats songs. I can't seem to put the url in as a comment, but here's the youtube extention youtube.com/watch?v=TJ3wMk8lQjQ
Another shirtless Setzer solo. God bless youtube.
@Rustyolboy - If you like this song,the search for the Sonny West original here on You Tube (it's called "All of my love" (Oh Boy) )<< Oh Boy is one of the few hit songs Buddy did that was written for him by someone else
oh my.. i'm in love with brian! i mean it! no, i'm not stupid ;D but he's like an angel with that great looks! I just love rockabilly. Stray Cats is the best <3
yah know whats weird.. i,m 16 and at first when i showed intrest in music where at the beginning punk bands from the 90s then 80s and to some ska and Reagge, and just for fun i began to listen to ElvisPresley and chuck Berry and now i love Rockabilly,, that wont change
K, if you like that stuff young man... check out (if you haven't already) Peter Tosh (Reggae), Black Flag, Rollins Band, Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, Fugazi, Bad Brains, Misfits, Samhain, Danzig, Suicidal Tendencies, TSOL, DI, then go way back and listen to The Stooges (with Iggy Pop). Go do it! Also check out Hank Williams III. Hank III has what you are looking for
I sort of like the Stray Cats....idk...sort of an exaggerated rockabilly sound. But atleast it's definitely rockabilly....and anyone who will see this video will agree with me..."Rockabilly rules, ok".
THIS was amazing! They really did do justice to the original. I bet if Buddy Holly was alive back then, he'd join them on stage and rock the FUCK out ;)
djdaveking, I'm 20 and I do also have a Stray Cats tattoo!! I do agree with you, people our age have no idea who they are, they don't know real rock and roll... poor them, lol!
You guys are awesome... 18 & 20 with Stray Cats tattoos. Back in my day, everyone was into Duran Duran & Culture Club. No big deal anymore. But I was "different" and in love with Stray Cats. I'm proud that at 14 I recognized true talent and you guys are carrying the torch. Thank you! :-)
Thanks God for Rockabilly!!!!! herein Brazil there is a "Samba" that I hate, but when somebody are listining, I take my Rockabilly's tapes and CDs and listen in high tone!!!! Thanks Buddy, Elvis, Richie, and all rockabilly stars!!!!!
Ola Natália, obrigado pelo seu comentário,fico feliz em saber que existem pessoas de bom gosto como o seu em nosso país. Infelizmente a anti-música (samba, axé, esse tal de Crew agora....) Viva o Rockabilly linda.
Thanks for your message, sorry if I said in generals about samba, I respect very much who likes this kind of music, but realy "to myself", samba is not a good music, I repeat To myself, but everyone may hear what wants ok
Grato por seus comentários, sejamos então aqui no Brasil, um link com o Verdadeiro Rockabilly ok?, Queira Deus que um dia possa visitar Mississipi, Graceland, o berço da música maravilhosa, triste que tenhamos que ouvir samba por aqui não é mesmo?
Abraços e "VIVA BUDDY HOLLY, STRAY CATS, GENE VINCENT E TODOS ÍCONES DO ROCK'N'ROLL
Pois é amigo, nos perdoem que gosta de samba, mas isso aqui é música!!!!!, com acordes,rítimo e melodia, não sei se o amigo lembra da propaganda da Aspirina, onde a moça na praia ficava com dor de cabeça e o conjunto de pagode tocando? acho que o marketeiro era do rock'n'roll.
i was in college when the stray cays hit...we threw down our led zep and boston records and slicked our hair and rolled our sleeves up until 1984...they were so cool and still are..kids today do NOT know cool like the cats
Nearly has. I know of only two other people under the age of 18 who like the Cats or BSO. Everyone else doesn't know what real music is. The 50s and the rockabilly revival era were some of the best times for music.
@RawrKryll Well, I'm 15 and I'm Rock 'N' Roll and Rockabilly mad. My favourite singers are Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, Buddy Knox, Brian Setzer and the Stray Cats, Eddie Cochran and many more. My CDs and records are all 50's and 60's related with Rockabilly albums such as the Stray Cats - The Best Of and Rock Therapy. I get bullied for it but, oh well...
@jh1234999 dont let them make fun of you. Show them that their music is inferior to yours and ignor them because Rockabilly is making another comeback in America and around the world. Stay on the right track and never let the music die
i'm 17 and I totally agree, rockabilly (& psychobilly) is so unappreciated by our generation. I don't think I know anyone who'd heard of the stray cats before they met me...in fact, I don't think I know anyone who'd even heard of rockabilly! it's quite sad really...
its real sad no appreciation for the music anymore... but as long as we listen to it and try to share it with other people itll stay alive... LONG LIVE ROCKABILLY!!!!!!!!
he LOOKS like billy joe armstrong back in the day ..... well i saw them with my ex in i think 1983 at the civic in frisco .. real cool . woman wore those big puffy dresses and the wooden floor was movin like a bob marley concert ! yaeh back in the day ~ A's fan !!
