'Bout fucking time they reissued this thing!!! Rockabilly ain't my thing, really, but this album is still lots of fun. Beyond the obvious hits "Rock this Town" and "Stray Cat Strut", standout tracks include "Runaway Boys", "Rumble in Brighton" and "Baby Blue Eyes" -- even the silly ballad "Lonely Summer Nights" to an extent. You do have to put up with some needless filler, of course (especially "Rev It Up & Go", "Little Miss Prissy" and "Double Talkin' Baby".) Brian Setzer made a glorious comeback in the late 90's with his big-band thing (that makes two ancient musical genres he's revived in his career), but I'll get to that one at a later date...such as in another life.
