Built for Speed
''Built for Speed'' is an album from the American rockabilly band Stray Cats and was the band's first American album. It is essentially a compilation of 12 songs taken from the band's first two initially UK-released albums: six from ''Stray Cats'' and five from ''Gonna Ball'', plus the title track, "Built for Speed", which had not previously been released in the UK. It was the most successful record for the band, with the videos for songs such as "Rock This Town" and "Stray Cat Strut" reaching MTV regular rotation status. The title track can also be heard in the 1984 film ''Surf II''.
== Critical reception ==
In a contemporary review for ''The Village Voice'', music critic Robert Christgau gave the album a "B-" and said that, despite Brian Setzer's exotic, modernistic guitar touches, "the mild vocals just ain't rockabilly. You know how it is when white boys strive for authenticity—'57 V-8 my ass." In a retrospective review, Mark Deming of Allmusic gave it four-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that the melodies and playing are strong enough to withstand datedness on what is "song-for-song the group's strongest album, despite the cut-and-paste manner in which it was created."
