"Stray Cat Strut" is the eighth track on the Stray Cats' debut album, ''Stray Cats'', released in 1981 in the UK. In the US, the song was first released in 1982 on ''Built for Speed''. The song became a hit in the US, peaking at No. 3 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, over a year after it had reached its No. 11 peak in the UK. The music video for the song received extensive airplay on MTV during the channel's early days. The video consisted of band members (and extras) performing in an alley while an irate resident throws things at them. It also featured scenes from the 1949 MGM cartoon ''Bad Luck Blackie''. In the October 1998 issue of ''Guitar World'' magazine, Brian Setzer's solo from "Stray Cat Strut" ranked No. 92 on the "Top 100 Guitar Solos of All Time" list.〔(Guitar Lists )〕 ==Cover versions== Setzer later played this song with his subsequent band, The Brian Setzer Orchestra, released on ''The Ultimate Collection''. In 1989, Spanish rockabilly band Los Renegados covered the song in Spanish as ''Gato de callejón'', which in turn was later covered in 2006 by Jack y Los Daniels. In 2006, the ska punk band Reel Big Fish covered the song for a compilation titled ''Go Cat Go! A Tribute to Stray Cats''. It was also featured as a playable track in the music video game ''Guitar Hero: On Tour'', and was released as downloadable content for ''Rock Band'' (though credited to Setzer as a solo artist). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stray Cat Strut」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
