[California now]
surprisingly probably my favorite show – former bassist of The Stray Cats – he
conveniently played some of their stuff and then did a sort of homage to Sun
Records’ musicians - while same-old same-old rockabilly bands get tiresome
tiresome, hearing his very apt renditions of Stray Cats’ songs reminded me how
un-same of a band they were – cool darkness, style, distinctive pacing with the
bass lines – they were a great band and he translated that to us all by himself
(with a backing band J ) – and then he
reminded me, something I only learned upon moving to Texas, of the pivotal-ness
of Sun Records’ musicians, a good lesson for any young person
