Early in his career Setzer was a member of the NYC band Bloodless Pharaohs, and later fronted the popular rockabilly revival band, Stray Cats. The Stray Cats particularly caught America's attention with the 1982 album Built for Speed, which included the two Top Ten hits, "Rock This Town" (#9) and "Stray Cat Strut" (#3), as well as with the follow-up 1983 album Rant 'N Rave, which included the two successful singles "(She's) Sexy + 17" (#5), and "I Won't Stand In Your Way" (#35).
In the mid 1990s, Setzer led a comeback of sorts for swing music and big band music, when he formed Brian Setzer Orchestra. The band has released at least 5 albums to date and one live DVD. This group had one hit, "Jump, Jive, and Wail" around the same time swing revival acts like the Cherry Poppin' Daddies' "Zoot Suit Riot" had been received favorably in mainstream America.
Brian Setzer also recorded some solo albums during Stray Cats' break in the 1980s along with some in the 1990s. In 2001 he released an album titled Ignition with his band '68 Comeback Special. A new solo album titled Rockabilly Riot Vol. 1: A Tribute To Sun Records was released on July 26, 2005, in the United States.

Fishnet Stockings
The Brian Setzer Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, my sweet baby wears fishnet stockings
And when she starts a rockin' there ain't no stoppin'
Singing, wop bop a doo bop, fishnet stockings
Shoo wop a doo wop, when she's rockin'
Bop bop a doo bop, there ain't no stoppin'
She's got a pair in pink
She's got a pair in red
When she puts the black ones
She makes me lose my head
Singing, wop bop a doo bop, fishnet stockings
Shoo wop a doo wop, when she's rockin'
Bop bop a doo bop, there ain't no stoppin'
I'm rockin' with my baby in her fishnet stockings
She's got a pair in pink
She's got a pair in red
When she puts the black ones
She makes me lose my head
Singing, wop bop a doo bop, fishnet stockings
Shoo wop a doo wop, when she's rockin'
Bop bop a doo bop, there ain't no stoppin'
I'm rockin' with my baby in her fishnet stockings
Alright, boys, let's go
Well, my sweet baby wears fishnet stockings
Fishnet stockings
Fishnet stockings
I'm rockin' with my baby in her fishnet stockings
Fishnet stockings, oh yeah
I'm rockin' with my baby in her fishnet stockings

The second verse describes the variety of color options his partner has with her stockings, and how he is particularly drawn to the black ones.

What the heck is Setzer playing between 02:15-02:25 ! That's a piece of heavenly beauty... or... Jazz? Educated Guitarists please!

Yeah it's a jazz solo. The type of thing he didn't start playing until he got older and NEVER with the Stray Cats. He reuses a lot of those jazz licks though, like I have heard the first notes of that jazz part in many of his solos in A. Even I use it a lot now because of him. The only other video I can think of off the top of my head is him playing Twenty Flight Rock with Jeff Beck. He started the solo the same way as the jazz part of this video and blew Jeff Beck's mind.
