      Bought this in ‘82 when I was 12. Played it yesterday when I was 53. Sounds sooo good! Love this album!

        Bought this in '82 after seeing them appear for the first time on MTV. Relistening now with mature ears and the production by Dave Edmunds is top notch. I also never realized this is a compilation from first two albums and singles.

        This pressing is wonderful, real sounding, and really flatters the band.

        I will never get tired of hearing "Stray Cat Strut" and "Rock This Town".
        4 stars. Recommended.

          It’s taken me a couple listens to appreciate this release but after coming back to this after having a wider array of musical appreciation, this is one the prime albums that have brought that modern rockabilly sound into the mainstream.

            The font used on the cover for Stray Cats is so similar to the one on Al Stewart's Year of the CAT
