CD Reviews

No Need To Panic!

Mike King | Taunton, MA United States | 11/12/2003

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Sundazed Records put a lot of time and effort into their surf guitar series. Although six of the twenty songs in this volume are hot rod instrumentals, they sound right at home among the obscure and previously unreleased surf instrumentals included in this collection. Jerry Cole And His Spacemen perform "Point Panic" as well as the Surfaris originally did. The Trashmen turn in a very good rendition of the Ventures' hit "Walk, Don't Run." "The Gremmie, Part 1" by the Tornadoes is a humorous song about beginning surfers. The Catalinas were a studio supergroup that consisted of guitarists Tommy Tedesco, Billy Strange and Jerry Cole, saxophonist Steve Douglas, and drummer Hal Blaine, with both Leon Russell and Bruce Johnston on piano! Their song "Banzai Washout" alone is worth the price of this CD."

Very cool

"Of the set, this is my favorite CD. But be aware this music is not for everyone. If you like crazy surf music complete with drag racing sound effects, barking dogs, and crazed killer laughs then stop here and push the "Add to cart" button! The sound quality is nothing short of fantastic. Even though it is in Mono, it is the best sounding compilation CD I've ever heard. If you never heard anything other than the Surfaris or the Ventures, you should lay down cash for this."
