I’m 70. I’ve played everything from 60’s pop rock ( it sucked but was easy to cut your teeth on) to old country, hard rock and bluegrass. But rockabilly was always my favorites because it was the creation of a new genre of music. Brian and the Cats certainly personify what rockabilly was all about along with their own original classics. Mark Winchester is unbelievable. My name is Don Bernier and I approve this message.
He's so absurdly great. I've been playing guitar as a hobby for decades, and I couldn't develope technique like Setzer's even if I spent every waking hour working at it for the rest of my life. What he does is absurdly difficult. He plays completely clean - he uses pretty much no effects whatsoever, and while effects won't make a bad player good, they can really go a long way toward helping fill out the sound a guitarist produces, so it's just harder to sound good without any at all. And he's carrying the band. His rhythm section is as minimalist as can be. He's simply amazing.
@@SuperCrackerjacks I guess he uses overdrive and distortion here and there, yeah. I’m actually not intimately familiar with his playing - saw him live about 20 years ago and I bought a few of his records but haven’t paid attention more recently...

Brian has certainly shown himself to be a great solo act and along with his orchestra....but there's something extra special whenever he gets together with Lee And Slim Jim.......
These three are so good. These songs are so easy on a fundamental level, to the point a novice player could do a simple strumming of the chords in the song and totally do it fine. The difficulty is the nuance they all have, the monumental skill level and complete mastery of their instrument. As a trio, The Stray Cats were a super group from day 1. Such mastery, it blows me away.
I saw Slim Jim's drum solo during the band introductions in "Rock This Town". Not gonna lie though, thats exactly the reason I describe him as the "wild card" of the group.
That Year 89 was the first Time I saw the Cats in Düsseldorf. I remember the Opener. It was Mystery Train like here. The Cats blew me away with this Sound. Raw Power.
Mr Brian Setzer on the guitar, as fast as lightening. Had he made his name in heavy rock, they'd be comparing him to Hendrix and Clapton. He really is that good. The crazy thing is that he can sing while playing complicated lead guitar.
Hello Stray Cats c’est tout simplement indémodable que du bon Rockabilly..... J’écoutais ce groupe début année 80 ..... Bises et longue vie........ Fred🙏🤙
j'y était et je les suivaient un peut partout début des années 80 heureusement ils ont faient renaître le rockabilly de période revival a 64 ans je court pour les voirs Stray Cats ou Riot ou Setzer jazz band Brian est un génie et ces musiciens formidables. Concert de legende éternel.
J'y étais aussi (la seule fois que je les ai vus dans les années 80). Par contre je sais plus où c'était... Au Grand Rex peut-être? Je viens de les revoir à Denver, Colorado où j'habite, ils n'ont rien perdu, ne les rate pas s'ils reviennent en France !
Sometimes, Brian sounds like Dave Edmunds......sometimes Buddy Holly. Wish they both were on-stage with these genuine, musicians...../ o well...thanks Brian, and gang.
Today´s music industry only recognize comercial artists or some others that only last a few months in the music world. Is a very big shame. Brian Setzer and The Stray Cats deserve to be inducted in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Slim Jim Phamton on Drums Lee Black Cat Rocker on Slap Bass And last but certainly not least Mr Brian Stretser on Lead Guitar and vocals Saw these guys live in 1981 Swansea Top Rank
It's wild that the Stray Cats drummer ended up in rockabilly band lead by Lemmy from Motorhead. They were called The Head Cat, made one album, and it's pretty good.
No matter what the song hes just jamming having fun drifiting off and back against the great rhythm section. Best 3 band you can wish for sounds like a much bigger band
LE MEILLEUR GROUPE REBELLE DES ANNEES 80 à aujourd'hui. inventeur et passeur du punk au rockabilly .dommage que ne l'on puisse pas les retrouver en France mais souvent aux USA...
My only gripe is the cameras kept switching SO much. I love this era of BS’ playing - it felt like he took more risks in his solos. He’s a way better guitar player today but needs to let the dog off the chain a little more in how gritty his playing can get.
They don’t play shows like this any more. In the rare occasions they get together, their set list is half as long, and they’ve been playing the same songs for years. Brian Setzer is more focused on his solo career now.
Sacré veinard ... !!! Quand était-ce et où ... ? A l'Olympia, il me semble mais je ne suis pas sûr ... Je me demande comment se fait-il que je n'ai pas vu ce concert à l'époque ... C'est incroyable ...!!!

Brian Setzer in 2022 still plays circles around most others out there with that certain talent/class that you just cannot buy!!
Very very very true that comment the Coolest Cat ever

he was born to play guitar and we're lucky to have a chance to see him do that
sometimes not clean but cool, dirty, messy and awesome. Too clean is boring.
@@SuperCrackerjacks I guess he uses overdrive and distortion here and there, yeah. I’m actually not intimately familiar with his playing - saw him live about 20 years ago and I bought a few of his records but haven’t paid attention more recently...
@@humanbeing2420 Sorry my mistake. I thought you meant the clean technique, not the sound.
@@humanbeing2420 the only distortion Brian uses comes directly from the Fender Bassman amp. Classic tube driven sound.
Best guitarist alive. He can play anything.

Such a pretty purr Brian has! Every time he does that, I just start swooning
shady grove on a banjo...this guy could play a trash can lid strung with dental floss and tear the house down!

Perfectly succinct
若い頃のスリリング🤯なステージも最高でしたが、この頃の演奏🎶も緩急が効いててキカセル､素晴らしい。オールドグレッチ弾きとして世界一です。one and only❣️
ハンパないバンドのレベル。
今ブライアンオーケストラのギターを一生懸命練習してるけど、これを観たらストレイキャッツも手を付けたくなってきた。
この神レベルのギターを弾きながらこのレベルで歌えるのがマジで凄い。。
Such amazing talent, for a man who came from Long island, NY., as did I. An American musician, 🙌.
I agree with a comment below. When someone mentions great guitarists they never mention Brian Setzer yet he is right up there with the best of them.
He is the best of them
I saw Slim Jim's drum solo during the band introductions in "Rock This Town". Not gonna lie though, thats exactly the reason I describe him as the "wild card" of the group.
These guys were, are, and remain the real deal.
Most underrated guitarist in the world
No Hall of Fame...
Should be in a long time ago...
He has skills...love that old fashioned style sound...
Back to the Future...lol
one of 'em for sure!!
No Rock ' n Roll hall of fame? That's because of politics! 👎
@@nickflores1907 , the "Summertime Blues" part got me dancing. During 22:50, I saw Slim Jim with the "I don't know" face, completely hilarious.
They are the best of Real rock'n'roll today. There is no one more. Great group ans thanks for rock'n'roll memory 👍👍👍😎
I was here that night... Great and great again. Just many thanks 👍😎
Stray Cats at the very top of their game.
That Year 89 was the first Time I saw the Cats in Düsseldorf. I remember the Opener. It was Mystery Train like here. The Cats blew me away with this Sound. Raw Power.
The three Cool Cats was an amazing act... I love this guys they simply ROCK! 👍👍❤️❤️💯💯💯
J'ai encore des frissons toute mon enfance un de mes meilleurs groupes de rockabilly .
リアルタイムで前人未到のファニーフェイスＲＯＣＫＥＲの出現にはとてもとても驚愕した覚えがある、、、
３,４倍の努力でもとても足元にも及ばないギターリング、、、
どんな練習をすれば若くしてこんな域のフレージングが可能なんだろうか、、、
あぁ神こそ罪深い存在と思わざるを得ない、、、
Mr Brian Setzer on the guitar, as fast as lightening. Had he made his name in heavy rock, they'd be comparing him to Hendrix and Clapton. He really is that good. The crazy thing is that he can sing while playing complicated lead guitar.
You know it damn well man
Arguably the best musician to come out of Long Island. I know I am biased as I grew up with and know Brian very well !
The best guitar player I heard lots but Brian setzer is the best
I play a Gretsch coz of Brian's influence so no argument about his guitar ability, but it almost overides what a great vocalist he is.
Hello Stray Cats c’est tout simplement indémodable que du bon Rockabilly.....
J’écoutais ce groupe début année 80 .....
Bises et longue vie........
Fred🙏🤙
ストレイキャッツ
最高です♥️
Great guitarist but also a beautiful voice . Great hair and beautiful face too.
Superb tone of the guitar from this concert 🙂

Je viens de les revoir à Denver, Colorado où j'habite, ils n'ont rien perdu, ne les rate pas s'ils reviennent en France !
@@henrygoleau sur que tu me faire confiance mais aujourd'hui Brian tourne beaucoups avec le groupe
Riot . Avec Cats moin maintenant.
Brian is a musical genius...
Setzer must have been born with a guitar in his hands
Stuart Wallace . He’s puttin’ on a clinic with this one.
Sometimes, Brian sounds like Dave Edmunds......sometimes Buddy Holly. Wish they both were on-stage with these genuine, musicians...../ o well...thanks Brian, and gang.
青春時代を思い出します♡かっこよすぎ
GREAT stuff!!! Looks like they really dazzled their French audiences!!
Grand souvenirs je les est vue cette année là au Zénith
Et cette année s était l’année de naissance de mon fils.
Que du bonheur.
Amazing rockin' band. Lee Rocker's such a badass.
Wait a minute...there are actually 22 people on this dirtball planet who gave this a thumbs down? Wow!
great guitar player...doesnt get nearly the credit he deserves
Today´s music industry only recognize comercial artists or some others that only last a few months in the music world. Is a very big shame. Brian Setzer and The Stray Cats deserve to be inducted in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
とても素晴らしい。３人だけでこの格好良さ。
Messing with the tempo on Double Talking Baby!
weird and cool!
@@SuperCrackerjacks , I liked the "Rockabilly Rules" part, it was so epic! I want this to be on repeat
I think it’s on purpose. Slowing down the chorus, speeding up the solos.
These cats DELIVERED!
Slim Jim Phamton on Drums
Lee Black Cat Rocker on Slap Bass
And last but certainly not least
Mr Brian Stretser on Lead Guitar and vocals
Saw these guys live in 1981 Swansea Top Rank
Setzer is an absolute monster player.
La Grande Classe .Du grand Brian Setzer. Le gros son des Cats ;)
I truly love this band .
Quelle musique,top du top

Has there ever been a more fine specimen than my boy Setzer 😍
No there hasn't! ❤
I had no idea that Brian knew how to play banjo...a fkg pleasure...
WHY IS THE VOLUME SO LOW?? WTF???
No matter what the song hes just jamming having fun drifiting off and back against the great rhythm section. Best 3 band you can wish for sounds like a much bigger band

Best band ever Brian Setzer my favourite artist of al time
I need rivers of beer, a Cadillac convertible to drive in a highway and the Stray Cats music !!
Awesome rockabilly band👍🙂
Stray Cats is Big Shit.
MT bom sou fan dessa banda

dif: Family Vlog . Yep he’s really tearing it up on this performance
Most excellent music
Absolutely brilliant
Merci ❤
J'aime bien sa veste!😘
А мне сапоги.Хочу бля ,хотя мне 60 бля!
カッケー‼️
Fantastique !
Парни просто красавцы!
Brian Setzer is god ;-)
Whilst rockabilly is a different genre to blues, Setzer reminds me somewhat of B.B. King who on RUclips with U2 said to Bono 'I don't play chords '
Excellent 👌
今見てもイケてるし、超絶全部カッコいい😂
まさにレジェンド
エルビスをこえて、何処へイッテルノ？
