January 2007 saw the re-release of the final 4 albums “Move It”,

Of Fire”, from the late 70's period - a total of 8 albums collectively
titled “The Stray Collection”.
Back in the 70’s Stray was one of the hardest gigging, and consistently
excellent live acts on the circuit. Stray originally came together at the tender
age of 14 in 1966, eventually building up a solid following and signing for
Transatlantic Records in 1970.
This marked an intensely busy decade for the band including two appearances
at the famed Reading Festival and also the huge Weeley Festival, as well as
an appearance on BBC’s Disco 2. Further major tours with the likes of
Ten Years After and Status Quo boosted Stray’s profile before they were
Black Sabbath’s special guests at a huge Alley Pally show back in ‘73.
By 1976 they toured with the new kids on the block Kiss and Rush, but eventually
took a sabbatical with the advent of Punk.
After a couple of brief returns as Stray, Del hit the road with the hard rocking
Killer Bees, before taking the decision to front a new Stray lineup as both
vocalist and guitarist. The band quickly signed with Mystic records and made
their recording debut in 1995 with the excellent “Live at the Robin”
album.
The last decade has seen Stray tour extensively across Europe with fans Iron
Maiden, receiving a great reception in many East European territories where
the band had never played before.
With the brand new re-issue programme and the fiery guitarist Del Bromham at
the top of his form, the new Stray line-up of Stuart Uren,
Karl Randall and of course Del Bromham, are
setting new standard for one of Britain’s most enduing guitar led rock
bands.
