Search - Various Artists :: Supertones Surf / Modern Surf Band Spotlight

Why would 15 bands from across the globe cover songs composed by The Supertones? Contrary to what you may think ? this is NOT a tribute album. This album IS a showcase of some of today?s up and coming bands in the modern surf instrumental scene. It displays a slice of the vast talent of the surf instrumental phenomenon that has spread throughout the world and continued to grow unabated since the early 1960s. The concept behind this release is to strike a contrast between the bands? interpretations of a body of modern surf music with the bands? own original compositions. The songs and performances are a testimony to the quality of The Supertones? music and the tremendous talent of today?s hot new surf bands. This release has been issued simultaneously with a retrospective of The Supertones? decade of original surf compositions aptly titled "Original Music" (GGR 1012).
