Stray Cats - Look at That Cadillac (Live at Rockpalast: 1983 Loreley Open Air) Artist : Stray Cats Song : Look at That Cadillac Live album : Live at Rockpalast: 1983 Loreley Open Air (2015) This set presents two Stray Cats shows, recorded in Germany at the height of their powers. The first set is actually the latter of the two (1983), recorded just before the release of their third album. They’re playing a big outdoor festival and have clearly arrived as stars. Although the artwork makes it appear that Mel Collins (!) plays sax with them throughout, he’s actually only on two cuts. Oddly enough, that’s the same number of tracks a completely uncredited Dave Edmunds also plays on!! It’s a solid set of Stray Cats tunes, but the version of George Jones’ “The Race Is On“ with Edmunds is a definite set highlight. The other set is from 1981, and their second album (Gonna Ball) wasn’t even out yet and they were almost completely unknown back in the States.
