Hello everyone! Welcome to the Drum Channel Podcast with Billy Amendola and his guest Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats. 

Billy and Jim’s conversation tells the origins of the band, who was credited for bringing the Rockabilly vibe back into the mainstream and then taking it to another level, the era of the MTV days, his solo music and non-music projects, how he became known as “the king of the sunset strip,” and more. Enjoy! 

For more, in 2015, Jim wrote a book titled “My Life As a Rockabilly Rebel: A Stray Cat Struts,” and he’s currently hosting a radio show on Little Steven’s Underground Garage on SiriusXM. He also shares his passion for baseball on an additional show on SiriusXM called Fantasy Sports Radio.
