Stray Cats, Built For Speed, 1982 on EMI America.
This was their US debut, built from two earlier UK releases.
Brian Setzer of course went on to a big hit with Jump Jive an’ Wail. Jim Phantom and Lee Rocker went on to Phantom, Rocker & Slick (among other things). I think this was the first time I realized “retro” music was a thing and could be really cool.
