"Veering off the path of "surf" and into "lounge", "exotica" and "bachelor pad" music go The Huntington Cads. Chris Barfield & Steve Hill, formerly 2/5ths of The Finks (and the latter also an ex-member of The Kinks-sound-alikes The Witch Doctors) have taken their love for instrumental music in an entirely different direction than their former bandmates (who now call themselves The Bomboras). In this case, the MUSIC is far more outstanding, and deserving of wider attention! Check out, if you can find it, their 2nd CD, INTRODUCE THE NEW SOUND, as well as a pair of 7" EPs, BIG GUITARS WESTERN STYLE and 5...4...3...2...1...CADS ARE GO! They also appear on the following comps: SHOTS IN THE DARK: DEL-FI DOES MANCINI ("Arabesque"), AN EVENING IN NIVRAM: THE MUSIC OF THE SHADOWS ("Gonzales"), ROCK DON'T RUN VOL.3 ("Lunar Luau"), "TIGER MASK: TRASH AU GO-GO ("Ann Isabel"), and SWINGIN' CREEPERS!: A TRIBUTE TO THE VENTURES ("Sha La La"). Happy hunting!"
