Stray

This amazing bargain is a coupling of Strays studio album 10 from 2001 and the live in your face album. 10 is a fabulous Rock album, over 60 minutes of organically produced tunes showing a creativeness and imagination that really capture their 70s hayday…

2013's Rock This Town: The Collection marks the 35th anniversary of the formation of the Stray Cats. It features 23 tracks from the rockabilly trio – more than needed for most casual fans, but it's great for more dedicated fans of their most popular works, or those who want a deep mix of the best of the Cats in their random-play collection list…

STRAY are the power trio of the 21st century as far as rock fans are concerned all over the world. DEL BROMHAM has morphed over the years into a confident and entertaining front man with both striking and individual vocal duties and his renowned and much loved guitar pyrotechnics. Having never played live in Japan before Stray played in 2013 a number of selected dates in Tokyo and this stunning performance was recorded at Club Fever, Tokyo.

Stray is an English hard rock band formed in 1966. Vocalist Steve Gadd (born Stephen Gadd, 27 April 1952, Shepherd's Bush, West London), guitarist Del Bromham (born Derek Roy Bromham, 25 November 1951, Acton, West London), bass player Gary Giles (born Gary Stephen Giles, 23 February 1952, North Kensington, West London) and drummer Steve Crutchley (born 1952) formed the band whilst all were attending the Christopher Wren School in London. Richard "Ritchie" Cole (born 10 November 1951, Shepherd's Bush, West London) replaced Crutchley in 1968. They signed to Transatlantic Records in January 1970…

Stray Fantasies marks a deepening of the discography of wife-and-husband duo Hollie and Keith Kenniff under their collaborative moniker Mint Julep, an expertly manicured electric-pop venture that stands in stark contrast to the nebulous and experimental Helios and Goldmund outputs for which the latter member is known (though both members have ambient projects under their own names). Where those projects seek to defy conventional songform through textural, amorphous exploration, Mint Julep gels all the elements with a surprising and impressive songwriting expertise that speaks to the skill and well-roundedness of its creators. Stray Fantasies further proves this by delivering twelve fully crystallized, iridescent pop pearls glimmering with the interplay of synthesizers, pulsing basslines, and punching drums that ballast Hollie’s oneiric singing as she unfurls themes of vulnerability, insecurity, and other aching minutiae of love and relationships.

After parting ways with Transatlantic Records and signing on with Pye subsidiary Dawn in 1975, English heavy prog veterans Stray briefly expanded from a quartet to a five-piece with the addition of rhythm guitarist Pete Dyer – a move which had been intended to allow vocalist Steve Gadd the chance to focus on his frontman duties, but wound up driving the already disgruntled singer out of the band for good, instead. Into the breach stepped the already present Dyer, who proceeded to share vocals with lead guitarist and longtime band architect Del Bromham on the band's sixth long player – and Pye debut – Stand Up and Be Counted. Ironically, the album was composed predominantly of tracks originally slated for Bromham's first solo record, but when faced with Gadd's departure, he decided to re-purpose them for what proved to be a typically eclectic, if slightly chaotic-sounding LP.

Stray from the Flock is the eleventh solo album by former White Lion and Freak of Nature lead singer, Mike Tramp, released on March 1, 2019 through Mighty Music/Target Records. The album was released on CD, double gatefold LP on black 140G vinyl, LTD double gatefold LP on orange colour LP 180G (500 copies only) digital, and cassette. Stray from the Flock was recorded at Ark Studio in Denmark and mixed in Sweden by Peter Masson and essentially takes the 2013 release Cobblestone Street template one step further. The album follows on from the No. 1 Maybe Tomorrow from 2017 and according to Tramp the new album wrote itself. On January 25th, Tramp released the song/video, "Dead End Ride", as the first single from the album. The song went to No. 1 on iTunes in Peru the next day. A second single "Homesick" was released on March 29th, 2019. Tramp is set to tour in 2019 to support the album with over 100 shows planned, starting off in the US with 22 shows.
