great mark records stood stray test
We really made a mark with the Stray Cats. We made some really great records that really stood the test of time.
again fun ground song stamp walking
That was something that was fun to do. My whole thought, in general, is to put my own stamp on things and not be walking over the same ground again. So I wouldn't have done that song again if I didn't think I could do something really different with it.
bit blues couple dug fantastic good memphis played point time worked
That was a point where I dug a little bit back to some of the blues stuff. I worked with some fantastic people. Scotty Moore, Elvis' guitarist, played with me on a couple of records, and we also had the Memphis Horns. Those were good days, but everything's got to end. It was time to do other stuff.
band enjoy
With the new record, we really want to get out there. I'm really having a blast. The band I've got is just fantastic, so I want to get out there and enjoy it.
cut good moved nature records
We did two records and cut some good songs, but I don't know why we didn't last. We were insane. We were like, what, 24 years old at the time. We just moved on, I guess, which is the nature of the business.
coming definitely fans generation hear
There's definitely a new generation of fans out there coming out to hear us play.
although basically behind classical helpful music parents recording seriously tours
My parents have always been seriously helpful and behind it all the way. Although you think classical music is a different world, it's really not. The tours and recording sessions are basically the same.
