Lee Rocker made his mark singing, playing, standing on, spinning and rocking his giant upright bass as a founding member of the Grammy nominated music group The Stray Cats. The Stray Cats sold over 10 million albums, garnered 23 gold and platinum certified records, and were music video pioneers of the MTV. The Stray Cats' worldwide mega hits “Stray Cat Strut”, “Sexy and Seventeen” and “Rock this Town” have become a part of the fabric of rock and roll. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has included “Rock this Town” as one of the 500 most important songs in rock. Lee Rocker has been consistently touring, recording and performing around the globe since 1980 and has cultivated a fanatically loyal following of rockers, rebels and all types of music lovers. He is known for making his upright double bass appear as if it were a lightweight instrument as he spins, throws it about and stands on it during his high energy and fun concerts. In concerts Lee Rocker shares behind the scenes stories about his days and nights on the road and in the music business for the last 40 years. He rocks every town and leaves every audience cheering!For tour info click on Lee's website! https://leerocker.com/shows

Born in Brooklyn and raised in Massapequa, New York, Phantom grew up listening to his parents' jazz records and began playing drums by the age of ten. He took lessons with Mousie Alexander, who played with Benny Goodman, studying jazz and working through books by Jim Chapin and Ted Reed. By the late 1970s, he was playing in bands with his childhood friend, bassist Lee Rocker. They soon joined forces with guitarist Brian Setzer to form Stray Cats.[ When performing with Stray Cats, Phantom did not sit behind a standard drum kit like most drummers, but instead opted to play in a standing position with a minimalist set-up of bass drum, snare drum, hi-hat, and crash cymbal. During downtime from Stray Cats, Phantom played in swing, rockabilly, and jump blues combo The Swing Cats with Rocker and ex-Polecats guitarist Danny B. Harvey,[6] as well as rockabilly and glam rock project Phantom, Rocker & Slick with Rocker and guitarist Earl Slick. In 1985, he appeared with Carl Perkins and a host of other musicians including Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Dave Edmunds and Rosanne Cash for Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session in London, England. Phantom also played with Jerry Lee Lewis. He later formed Col. Parker with former Guns N' Roses guitarist Gilby Clarke, releasing the album Rock n Roll Music in 2001.[ Most recently, he has been involved in the eponymous roots-rock band Slim Jim's Phantom Trio; rock-and-roll supergroup Dead Men Walking with Kirk Brandon and Mike Peters, and Captain Sensible;[ and rockabilly supergroup The Head Cat with Danny B. Harvey and the late Motörhead vocalist and bassist Lemmy. He also hosts the Rockabilly Raveup show on Little Steven's Underground Garage. In March 2023, Barnes announced the supergroup The Barnestormers, featuring Barnes, Cheney, Phantom with Jools Holland and Kevin Shirley. A self-titled album was released on 26 May 2023.

Slim Jim Phantom is the Stray Cats' drummer, host of “Slim Jim's Rockabilly Raveup” on Little Steven's Underground Garage and a cool-cat storyteller. He takes us through the Stray Cats' formation, with bassist and elementary school classmate Lee Rocker and singer-guitarist Brian Setzer, and their early days as a “rockabilly bar band” playing New York clubs like CBGB before they relocated to London. The band had recorded two British albums by the time a U.S. label released the compilation Built for Speed, which, powered by the hit singles “Rock This Town” and “Stray Cat Strut,” turned the Stray Cats into unlikely early '80s stars. Why did the band split after the follow-up album—and reunite after solo projects? What's happening with the Stray Cats now? And who is on Phantom's rockabilly Mount Rushmore?

About Slim Jim Phantom As the legendary drummer for the Stray Cats, Slim Jim Phantom, alongside bandmates Brian Setzer and Lee Rocker, spearheaded the neo-rockabilly movement of the early 80s. With a love for 50's Rock and Roll, the Stray Cats took inspiration from that bygone era and mixed with their youthful energy and aggression to produce the updated hard-edged rockabilly sound that saw them conquer London, Europe and later the U.S., gaining fans among the likes of Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, and Robert Plant along the way. In addition to the Stray Cats, Jim has worked with some of the world's top artists. He has played a part in many successful groups – notably Phantom, Rocker and Slick (featuring long time David Bowie guitarist Earl Slick) which produced two popular albums; and Dead Men Walking, an all-star affair which has boasted original members of The Sex Pistols, The Cult and Big Country among the rotating line-up. Jim also enjoyed a stint playing with the rock-n-roll originator, Jerry Lee Lewis, and even performed in a now-mythological band called The Cheap Dates with acting legend Harry Dean Stanton, one of Jim's longtime pals. Jim has worked on numerous other projects, including his own explosive self-named roots-rock trio, and HeadCat, co-starring Lemmy Kilmister and Danny B. Harvey, and Jim's musical project The Jack Tars, a band co-founded with old friends, and former Dead Men Walking bandmates Captain Sensible and Mike Peters and SJP's long time true rockabilly pal Chris Cheney of Australia's top rockin' band The Living End. He is also deeply committed to charitable works, too: he climbed both Mount Everest and Mount Kilimanjaro for Love Hope Strength Foundation (an organization co-founded by Mike Peters of The Alarm that benefits cancer research). Jim hosts Rockabilly Rave Up on Little Steven's Underground Garage on SiriusXM. He is known as "The Honest Mechanic," where he features new rockabilly acts and the classics. Jim also hosts Slim Jim Phantasy on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio, where he shares his other passion, baseball, and fantasy sports in general.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of “The Journey of My Mother's Son” podcast, I sit down to talk with Maggie Mae. Maggie is one of the singer/songwriters that we saw perform at the Philadelphia Folk Festival back in August. She is a soulful singer-songwriter based in Philadelphia who fronts an exciting and energetic Folk/Funk group under the same name. She pulls inspiration from the music she grew up on and the strong musical foundation her family built, along with the ever-evolving world of music around her to carve out a sound all her own. Combining genuine, heartfelt lyrics with catchy, cutting guitar riffs, her songs can either touch your soul or make you want to get up and dance. She has been described as “poppy, polished, talented, & promising,” by XPN's The Key's John Vettese. Originally hailing from Northern New Jersey, Maggie has always had music in her life. Her parents met in college and formed a bluegrass band called 'The Wild Oats,' and later performed throughout New Jersey with various traditional Irish bands. Her father instilled a love for 'all things string' from a very young age, and her mother always encouraged her to write and sing. With a Steinway Grand piano in her living room, and fiddles, penny whistles, hand drums, dulcimers, harps, mandolins, banjos, and guitars littered throughout her childhood home, Maggie has managed to pick up and write with just about any stringed instrument she can find. Growing up, she was always attending folk & bluegrass festivals, making sure she was up front for favorites like Martin Sexton, Dar Williams, Vance Gilbert, and Railroad Earth. Rock and Blues legends including Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Allman Brothers, and Bonnie Raitt were always on heavy rotation in her house. During her time attaining an Associate's Degree in Music Performance, Maggie cultivated a love and appreciation for classical, jazz, funk, world, and jam music, and deepened her knowledge of jazz and bluegrass standards. She also fell deeply in love with one-man-band greats Michael Hedges and Keller Williams, leading her to discover and navigate the world of percussive guitar and loop pedals and effects. She puts all of this together to inspire, and continuously develop, the sound she creates today. Maggie has managed to round up a talented, ever-rotating cast of characters to support her over the years, featuring some of Philly's most talented musicians. No matter which lineup is sharing the stage with her, the band always brings an impressively varied set of skills and an undeniable energy to the stage. Maggie Mae has shared bills with both local and national acts including Soulive, The Heavy Pets, Dawg Yawp, Lohai, Lee Rocker of the Stray Cats, the Ladles, and more at many of Philly and New Jersey's premiere music venues. Maggie Mae released her debut single "Can You Hear Me Now?" featuring Jake Leschinsky of Philadelphia's favorite funk band, Swift Technique, on bass in November of 2018. The band made their debut appearance at World Cafe Live on December 20th, 2018 with friends Taylor Kelly & Erik Kramer filling the bill in celebration. You can listen to "CYHMN" on Spotify and iTunes. At the end of 2019, Maggie won a contest to open for Soulive at the Ardmore Music Hall, where they made their debut as a 10-piece band. December marked the beginning of creating their debut album, recording the first single off the album, 'Hometown,' at Rittenhouse Soundworks with Michael Cumming engineering and Robby Webb producing. 'Hometown' is available everywhere. Maggie is currently in the studio recording her next LP, which is scheduled to release in early 2023. To find out more about Maggie and listen to some of her music, check out her website at www.maggiemaemusic.com. Click on either of the links below to listen to the conversation.

Danny B Harvey in conversation with David Eastaugh DANNY B. HARVEY was born in Killeen, Texas and at the age of 6 moved to Catlettsburg, KY. where he first picked up and started playing the guitar. At the age of 15 after moving to Canyon Country, CA. he was fortunate enough to receive his first formal lessons with the great JOE PASS. Feeling out of place (after all he had only moved away for rural KY. two years earlier) and anxious to make a name for himself he moved to England with LEVI DEXTER after only years of study. Danny soon developed a finger picking guitar style that is very unique and based on his idol MERLE TRAVIS, CHET ATKINS, JOE PASS and his classical-technic he learned at USC. As a guitarist, producer and composer Danny has played and recorded with such great artists as Levi Dexter, Tim Polecat, Johnny Ramone, Nancy Sinatra, Lemmy Kilmister, Lee Rocker, Slim Jim Phantom and Wanda Jackson
Rockabilly legend Lee Rocker, bassist for the Stray Cats, joins me today to discuss contemporary ballet! And rock'n'roll of course...
While many bands of the 80's were focusing on the synth-heavy New Wave or screaming guitars of Hard Rock, one band was taking their inspiration from the 50's roots of Rock. The Stray Cats came out of New York in 1979 and developed a devoted following quickly, but moved to the UK after hearing of a revival of the 50's subculture there. Inspired by the Sun Records artists of the 50's, the Stray Cats combined Rockabilly and Punk genres to form their sound.The Stray Cats were a trio with Brian Setzer on guitar and lead vocals, Lee Rocker on double bass, and Slim Jim Phantom on drums. They continued to tour and record in the UK, and released two albums there in 1981 before turning their interest back to the States. Their debut American album, Built for Speed, was comprised of songs selected from their first two albums released in England, plus the previously unreleased title track.The group benefitted from having both a unique sound and air play on the then-new MTV. Unlike most music of the time, songs were short and tight, without synthesizers or more modern sensibilities. Also, unlike the music of the time, everything was stripped down to the bare essence in this group. Phantom's drum set consisted of just a few pieces, worlds away from the massive sets fielded by prog rock groups like Asia and Rush. Brian Setzer wrote most of the songs, and had the distinctive look that would become associated with the group. Unfortunately, Setzer also tired of the group quickly, and the Stray Cats broke up in 1984. Setzer would go on to be the concert guitarist for the Honeydrippers (with Robert Plant as front man). The group would reunite frequently over the years, and each member continued to tour either with their own bands or in support of other musicians.The group continues to tour off and on today, and released a new album in 2021. Built for SpeedThis is the title track and the only song on the album previously unreleased. It is about cars, and hot rodding on the road. “Well I'm cruising low and I'm cruising mean, well I'm cruising slow in my dream machine. You're my hot rod mama and you're really built for speed.”Rock This TownAn easily recognizable hit, “Rock This Town” cracked the top 10. This song was the introduction to Rockabilly to many people. It is about hitting the clubs at night, dancing the night away. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame lists this song as one of the 500 songs that shaped rock and roll. “We're gonna rock this town, rock it inside out.” Baby Blue EyesA deeper cut from the album, this tells the struggle of a guy in love with a pretty girl he just doesn't trust. While in England, the Stray Cats attracted the attention of many famous artists including members of the Rolling Stones, the Who, and Led Zeppelin.Stray Cat StrutThis track is the most famous of the Stray Cat's tunes, and received significant airplay on both radio and MTV. It reached number 3 on the charts. “I'm flat broke but I don't care. I strut right by with my tail in the air.” Setzer's songs are original but carry the sound of a 50's cover. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Flying Theme from the motion picture “E.T. the Extraterrestrial”The film that made Steven Spielberg a household name was released this month. STAFF PICKS:Space Age Love Song by A Flock of SeagullsRob's staff pick peaked at number 30 on the Billboard charts. This New Wave group is out of Liverpool. When they couldn't come up with a name for the track, guitarist Paul Reynolds suggested the name because he thought it sounded like a space age love song. Mike Score's well-known hairdo was the result of a mistake after his hair was accidentally pushed down in the center before going onstage.Tainted Love/Where Did Our Love Go? by Soft CellBruce features the first hit from vocalist Marc Almond and instrumentalist David Ball, better known as Soft Cell. Tainted Love was originally recorded as a B-side in 1964 by Gloria Jones, but it didn't chart. Almond heard it when working in a cloakroom, and the duo started performing it with synthesizers instead of guitars. It was a big hit in the U.S. as part of the Second British Invasion. The extended dance version combined Tainted Love with the Supremes' hit “Where Did Our Love Go?”Wake Up Little Susie by Simon and GarfunkelBrian's staff pick hearkens back to the early days of rock with a cover of the Everly Brothers song recorded at Simon and Garfunkel's live concert from Central Park. The song did well and was part of the inspiration for Simon and Garfunkel's tour in 1983.I Want Candy by Bow Wow WowWayne's staff pick features a cover originally performed in 1965. Bow Wow Wow's version had both a rockabilly and punk feel to it. The lead singer was underage at the time, and the risque pictures on the album created considerable controversy. COMEDY TRACK:She Got the Goldmine (I Got the Shaft) by Jerry ReedJerry Reed's cautionary tale reminds us that it is better to learn how to cook than to marry for food as we close out the podcast.

Forman answers your COVID-19 concert questions Live Nation's apparent memo "leak" about 2021 conditions for artists appearing at its festivals has sparked a lot of controversy throughout the industry. The memo mostly puts the burden on the artists themselves and not the promoter when it comes to cancelations from either side. Live Nation is also demanding artists take a 20% pay cut with their advance payment and charging the artist double should they cancel a performance. This seems unfair, right? Jack Forman, who serves as the President of BiCoastal Productions, a New York City-based concerts and theatrical booking agency, chats with us about these terms and gets more in depth on how the concert industry operates. Forman answers all of your COVID-19 concert questions in this episode that every concertgoer should hear. Forman's current clients include Lee Rocker of Stray Cats, Naturally 7, Colin Mochrie's HYPROV of Whose Line is it Anyway?, legendary rock supergroup The Hit Men, Scotland's Red Hot Chilli Pipers, Vegas-Strip favorites The Bronx Wanderers and The Daily Show Writers Comedy Tour. Originally spearheading the agency's coverage of the Western United States, Forman now oversees the core agency staff and global touring strategy. He remains actively involved with industry organizations like the Western Arts Alliance (WAA), North American Performing Arts Managers and Artists (NAPAMA), and the Association of Performing Arts Professionals (APAP).
