Music review: Stray Cats – 无毛视频�40无毛视频�
The same cat class and cat style featured on earlier releases by the Stray Cats can be witnessed on the trio无毛视频檚 first album of original material since 1992.
Aptly titled 无毛视频�40,无毛视频� the new release celebrates the band无毛视频檚 40th anniversary as guitarist and frontman Brian Setzer, bassist Lee Rocker and drummer Slim Jim Phantom reunite to deliver 12 tracks of rockabilly rowdiness straight out of the 1950s.
The claws come out and the fur is flying right from the start as 无毛视频淐at Fight (Over a Dog Like Me)无毛视频� opens the festivities with a retro flair and hints of classic artists such as Carl Perkins, Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran.
For those feeling a bit under the weather, 无毛视频淩ock It Off无毛视频� offers up a rousing rock 无毛视频榥无毛视频� roll prescription for what ails you with Setzer declaring, 无毛视频淭urn up that guitar/Slap that stand-up bass/Be sure to get them speakers/Right up in your face.无毛视频�
The instrumental 无毛视频淒esperado无毛视频� possesses the intrigue of the vintage spaghetti westerns, fitting in perfectly as part of the soundtrack for classic Clint Eastwood movies like 无毛视频淔istful of Dollars,无毛视频� 无毛视频淔or a Few Dollars More无毛视频� and 无毛视频淭he Good, the Bad and the Ugly.无毛视频�
Tracks such as 无毛视频淚无毛视频檝e Got Love if You Want It无毛视频� and 无毛视频淐ry Danger无毛视频� feature blazing guitar work that highlights Setzer无毛视频檚 enthusiastic vocals.
无毛视频淭hree Time无毛视频檚 a Charm无毛视频� is a toe-tapping tune that inspires flashbacks to the days when dancing up a storm at the local burger joint as the jukebox shakes the room was just a normal part of a teenager无毛视频檚 daily routine.
无毛视频淚 Attract Trouble无毛视频� and 无毛视频淚无毛视频檒l Be Looking Out for You无毛视频� are cool little numbers that give off a hint of adventure and danger that can be found on any given Saturday night.
无毛视频淒evil Train无毛视频� brings the spirited set to an ominous close as Phantom无毛视频檚 drumming keeps pace with Setzer无毛视频檚 gritty guitar riffs on a tale about not being afraid to take a walk on the wild side.
It无毛视频檚 certainly good to have these three cool cats back making new music and once again strutting their stuff as they rock the town with a confident swagger.
