Synopsis

Album Description
Gary is the guitar god whose knack for taking well-known songs and turning them into rock instrumental monsters has made him a rock radio icon. He redefined Christmas music with his "Ho! Ho! Hoey" series, and is now poised to do the same with classic surf tunes as he tears into songs like "Pipeline", "Hawaii Five-O", "Peter Gunn", "Fun, Fun, Fun", "Wipe Out", and many others in ways you've never heard.

CD Reviews

Gary goes Coastal and it Rocks!
Kevin Rodgers | Keizer, OR USA | 09/06/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've always been a huge Gary Hoey fan, so when I found out he was not only releasing a new album (though he's done a couple of the songs before, like "Wipe out"), but a surf album, I was ecstatic! I could tell from the track listing before I even bought it that this album was going to be great. I definitely wasn't dissapointed. Gary adds a rockin' twist to a memorable genre of music from days gone by. All of the best surf songs ever are on it, but the best two by far are "Surfin' USA," and the theme to "Hawaii Five-O." Don't miss out on this one. Hang Ten!"
Solid Album. Almost All Covers
Kevin | Alamo | 06/28/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Most of these tracks improve on the original songs which is hard to do considering they were great in the first place. A couple of songs (Wipeout, Gone Surfin, Misirlou) have appeared before on previous albums and are excellent. The last few tracks of original material by Gary is also excellent."
