I’m 65 years old. When I was maybe 6 or 7 my dad gave me his old record player and sone 45’s. Gene Vincent’s Be Bop a Lula was one I played over and over. The Cats did a great job.
58 ans, dans les 45 tours/mn de mon père il y avait See You Later Alligator / Mambo Rock de Bill Haley et Guitar Boogie de Arthur Smith. En direct des années 50.
Blues was the main ingredient in the recipe for rockabilly and rock while Country gave it the twange that made the guitar king. You can thank Hank Williams for that in my estimation.
We enjoyed their music, it was great sound of the past in a more current 80s era, that gabbed the audience and we were part of that mass of fans who enjoyed that sound and their music. They were part of the best music era and created timeless sound for sure.
OWWWWW!! CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT SOUND!!! There are times when my teenage grandkids come over to the house and I have Old Time Rock n Roll playing on the stereo. The smile on their faces as they walk in IS PRICELESS!!! Many's the time they've told me why can't their music today be anywhere close to as good as the old Rock and Roll. And I tell them back then you had to have talent and be able to SING!! For my granddaughter's 16th birthday last year she wanted a 50's themed party. So we cleared out my four car garage and decorated it in 50's style including a motorized mirrored ball!! All the kids (and most of the adults) came dressed in 50's clothes and hairstyles. Most of the girls came dressed in Poodle dresses! Guys in jeans with their hair slicked back in a "duck tail"! We hired a "Rock n Roll" DJ who played 50's and 60's music while playing the part of an AM radio disc jockey. He even took song requests and had the kids line up to make dedications to friends, just like on American Bandstand! The music was great!! All the kids had a blast. And the highlight was doing the "Hand Jive" to that song, and at the end of the party everyone lined up to do "The Stroll" a couple of times, then saying good night to my granddaughter as they "strolled" out the door. SO MUCH FUN!!!
They were great days late eighties early nineties coming of age in NW Wi USA. The culture and economy revolved around dairy farms and the bar life was vibrant. It's all gone to pot since then and the kommie police turned fecal.
@Nobody Famous that's about as ignorant a statement as any. Mumble rap was like.. five minutes in the brief history of rap. It's like saying all country is crying about wives and dogs leaving, or all punk is angry emo brats whining about something they don't understand. To criticize you've never given a chance to is to out yourself as someone who is unwilling to open themselves up to anything different because they're afraid. Try I'm dying of thirst by Kendrick Lamar. Anything by Kendrick Lamar really. All music invites you to experience another aspect of life. Maybe one you've experienced yourself. Maybe one you haven't, but they're opening their world up for you to see inside. It's stupid to discount an entire genre because you heard a few bad ones.
@@heathertaylor8904 sh*t country music is a bunch of drunk,crying, cousin diddling, 4 wheel drive bs... Emo is cutting yourself in the bathroom because your dad didn't love you enough, pop is all I'm a ho with a yeasty box and 4 baby daddies, Metal is all five finger fist punched my uncles fartbox in back of quick stop, Generally speaking most modern music and artist suck.... I said what I said, it is what it is.....(Tom Macdonald)
Saw The Stray Cats in London, December 1980. They were great. They have done justice to this Gene Vincent classic. Sweet Gene would be smiling down on them, wherever he is now.
@@alainclement9244 Hello, je suis complètement d'accord. J'étais au 2ème concert parisien, c'est comme ça que Best l'avait appelé. Je m'étais dit que j'allais au musée du rock, voir la zique de mes parents. Je devais pas être le seul. Et tout le monde est sorti illuminé par le rockab. Moi, le punk à l'époque, compris.

BE BOP A LULA, I am 70 years old now been hearing this in 1980s and I love to dance💃💃💃 in my early days. My knees were still strong to twist. Grateful with RUclips and the RED GREY MATTER channel for posting/uploading this long lost song for me. I have so many memories to ponder. Thank you. My country 🇵🇭 Philippines is far from you but my greetings flies to your ♥ 💖🙏🌹🌹🌺🌺. Please be safe Sir/Maam. Health is Wealth.
Not long ago, I got on a Stray Cats kick and played all my Vinyl Stray Cats back-to-back. Was sure great to "have a visit" from my old friends! These guys definitely play it right!
They DONT MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS ANYMORE! Im glad i was born soon enough to at least experience this at its latter end. Great memories on the strip, racing and the girls... Great times man.
It’s out there, but it’s mostly underground artists. There’s a local musician in my town who goes by Low Volts who has a similar sound to this with a little dash of George Thorogood. You can find his music online.
1982 at 15, the Southern California music screen warped me. Punk was prevalent, “ New Wave”, Ska, and Rockabilly all we’re playing on my local radio station. Miss that volume of great styles of music on the radio. Guess it’s why we have u tube
I met Brian at an airport and they had just returned from a concert in the Far East. Nice guy to talk to.And his Cats can really rock and I say that as a guy 84.
Brian and the Cats do a killer cover with the Gene Vincent and the Bluecaps original. I like to imagine the two bands playing together in their prime. I'd be there for that concert!
I saw the stray cats about 9 years ago at the Brixton academy, brilliant experiences. I will go in 2019 when they tour the uk. Update, just got tickets for London on the 26th June.
You know what I find wild af? This was like the 3rd time it became popular, but most people are gonna assume this was from the 50s or so. Just a fantastic sound that never gets old.
Bonjour et Excellente nouvelle année 2023 à tous ! J aime beaucoup les Stray cats depuis leur début ! Il se trouve que Brian Setzer est un ami du plus grand chanteur de rock and roll français Johnny Hallyday ! Un duo en 1984 Johnny stray cats et Brian pour le concert à Paris de Johnny en 2013 ! ! Belle amitié entre les deux hommes ! "Be bop Lula "Gene Vincent . Johnny roi de France !
PLAY THE TWO VERSIONS TOGETHER WITHOUT KNOWING WHICH ON WAS Gene Vincents and which was the Stray Cat s would be very difficult. Gene Vincent's version was a classic and the Stray Cats covered it great as they did with other 50's hits(I fought the law(bobby fuller 4)etc.
@@williamwhitcombe6487 I said the song not the artist first thing that comes to my mind with Brian is Summertime Blues from when he was in La Bamba and that's not an original song of his either. See everyone has different preferences and experiences though I have have seen the movie you mentioned I did not particularly enjoy it or find it memorable I have seen Wild at Heart and La Bamba each at least a dozen times though.
See if you can find the movie The Girl Can’t Help It with Jayne Mansfield Performance s by Gene Vincent, Fats Domino ,and Little Richard in a major Technicolor Hollywood film was very unusual for the 1950’s.
This is a really impressive version of the Gene Vincent classic...it's hard to improve upon those great percussive Cliff Gallup guitar solos as short as they may be.

I like those pie crust-white wall rear tires. Makes it look at least 10× cooler.

They certainly did!
@@sandyperryman5139 Hei Peili, olen Bill Haley
Stray cats the legends just love everything about them. Still do in 2023. No competition.
Stray cats really captured that rockabilly sound and feel. Brian setzer played that hollow body guitar perfectly.
midnight rider I agree... nobody can get a better sound out of a Gretch!
@@rnigelwales I think George Harrison would like a word with you.
@@rnigelwales Chet Atkins wants a word too...
Yea huh
Dave Edmunds helped. A lot.
Rockabilly is like a close cousin to Blues, both reach into your soul.

Stray Cats is one of the best groups I've ever heard. Love them. Great Music. 🆗✔️👍🏻😀
The Brian Setzer Orchestra still rocks, they do a great Christmas show every year.
Rockabilly...doesnt age. Cruising the Tube tonight and found a blast from the past Stray Cats..woot woot 😉
Of course, Gene Vincent made this a hit in the 50's, but you knew that.

I played in bands in Melb Aus back in the 80's Rock a Billy and R&R this song was always there. Keep on Rockin.

Tout un pan de ma jeunesse. Ce rockabilly est super. J'en ai des frissons
Le bon vieux temps du rock n roll et des pionniers.
Great rendition by one of the best modern rockabilly bands
Слушаю подобные композиции получая не описуемое удовольствие , видимо прошли времена когда создавали подобную классику , все загадили тупым репом .
Lol what? One type of music doesn't preclude other kinda of music being good.

I heard the beginning and my heart sank. Smooooth.
listen to your heard!
In high school,1956, Gene Vincent and his echo mike and Bee Bop A lula was a big hit. Still love it in 2018
In high school in 1957. Sure wish we could go back and look at those mini skirts and tight fuzzy sweaters.
Amen! Haven't Heard This For Years!!! Love It! Thanks!!! Sure Do Miss All The Rock 'n' Roll Days!!! Amen?
absolutely fabulous song, best performance ever, thanks so much. Excellent foto. Good time for you.
I have always did love stray cats they got the greatest sound
I think every car in Newport & Laguna that summer of '82 was blasting the Stray Cats. It was such a cool, new sound
Not long ago, I got on a Stray Cats kick and played all my Vinyl Stray Cats back-to-back. Was sure great to "have a visit" from my old friends! These guys definitely play it right!
That’s called hitting the reset button. Came out in a much better mood too! Didn’t you?
They DONT MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS ANYMORE! Im glad i was born soon enough to at least experience this at its latter end. Great memories on the strip, racing and the girls... Great times man.
I hear that and I can relate! I also remember woodstock the beatles and free sex [no aids]!
Жму руку👍
IT IS TOO BAD CRUISEN IS NO MORE
It’s out there, but it’s mostly underground artists. There’s a local musician in my town who goes by Low Volts who has a similar sound to this with a little dash of George Thorogood. You can find his music online.
c'est fantastique c'est tellement génial bonne fête de fin d'année et plein de bonnes choses pour la venir merci 👍
i have loved this one for alot of yrs

Been a fan since '87. Love Stray Cats. Keep up that strutt
Yes, Love Stray Cats
Best rendition of this classic 'billy rock' tune ever.
Superb version ! I love the old guitar sound and the echo .
I met Brian at an airport and they had just returned from a concert in the Far East. Nice guy to talk to.And his Cats can really rock and I say that as a guy 84.
c est bon d ecouter de belles chansons souvenir de temps a autre merci grey
This was so smooth that it sneaked into my brain, and will probably stay there for a couple days. Really good!!!
Just days ?...Unforgettable drive....Stray Cats 🎸🐱💤🎸🐱💤🎸
Ma chanson , celle qui a bercé ma jeunesse dans les années /62-63-64 et oui " blouson noir" assagi à mon age .
Stray Cats are the best Rockabilly band ever.
nah. the 'Blasters' are the best.
Excellent cover of an old song.
Gene Vincent is looking down with a big smile on his face saying "The Stray Cats get it"
Red Grey Matter keeping good music alive. Cheers to the people behind this.
Yep, the wonderful 50s served in the 80s
Super, ça me rappelle ma jeunesse quand j'étais un voyou!
Stray Cats are the best rockabilly band in the world
Try Eddie Cochran.
Yes they are
Yes! Sounds just like Gene Vincent. Excellent. Brought back a lot of memories. Thanks.
Love the Stray Cats, and like the "Cheater Slicks" on the hot rod, you have to be as old as me to recognize that feature
Nothing beats the sound of an upright bass ...
Great music, and great band !…
Música para desbloquear recuerdos...Jamás se olvidan esos hermosos recuerdos...
Interesting and recall the amazing memories!
