The Soundtrack4Life Concert Series: Stray Cats

In the long and documented history of Rock 'n' Roll never has the music sounded as simple when played on a single drum, a standup bass and a guitar. Those are the weapons of choice for Long Island's Stray Cats Slim Jim PhantomLee Rocker and Brian Setzer.

Today's edition of The Soundtrack4Life Concert Series gives us more than 2 hours and 40 minutes of one of the most exciting Rock 'n' Roll bands to have appeared in the past 35 years or so. Two concerts spanning the course of 24 years. One when they were at the height of their success in 1981 and the other a reunion show at the Brixton Academy on the 9th November 2004.
