Slim Jim Phantom is best known as the drummer for Stray Cats, the band he started with childhood pals Lee Rocker and Brian Setzer. They spearheaded the rockabilly movement in the 80s and have kept the torch burning for vintage American rock and roll ever since. Their modern take on the throwback style gave new life to a beloved but almost forgotten musical sensibility, and their execution made them undeniable. Jim sits down with Jon and Mark to talk about his book, A Stray Cat Struts - My Life as a Rockabilly Rebel, and some of the friends he's made along the way.
