Description
Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords Of Stray Cats.
I've had numerous requests to feature some Brian Setzer-related music and ideas, so I figured I could push myself and perform a little "double-duty" by hitting this episode and check out some of Brian's early chord-based work with Stray Cats and then follow this lesson with a new Three-For-All episode where we'll take a look at some of his slick licks and lead phrases.
This lesson hits a number of chord-based moments from famous Stray Cats songs such as '(She's) Sexy & 17' and 'Stray Cat Strut,' while it also targets a few lesser-known and fan-favorite cuts, such as 'Rumble In Brighton,' 'Built For Speed,' 'and more!
There's something to be said about going back in time and studying older forms of music and songwriting habits from long ago, and this is clearly evident in this lesson, as we're hitting some of Brian's ideas from the early 1980s in this episode, but you can clearly hear/see that a lot of these ideas we're inspired and borrowed from musical ideas and guitar habits that were pioneered during the 1950s.
