DIGGIN' OUT
TWENTY OBSCURE SURF INSTRUMENTALS!
This is an essential LP ONLY collection of super rare surf instros, many
of which aren't available in any other form. All from vinyl sources, some
with a little telltale surface noise, but all on the hit list. DAVE &
THE CUSTOMS- Ali Baba; THE AVENGERS VI- Heartbeat, and The Good Humor Stomp;
THE CHEVELLS- Let There Be Surf, and Riptide; THE GESTICS- Rockin' Fury;
THE GOLDTONES- Gutterball, and Strike (The theme song to their local TV
bowling show, cut when the band members were only 15 years old! The lap
steel lead is double picked by Glenn Ross Campbell, who went on to the Misunderstood,
Juicy Lucy, and the Dirty Blues Band); The ILLUSIONS- Jezebel (best version
ever of this Frankie Lane classic); THE IRRIDESCENTS- Bali Ha'i (pre-Strawberry
Alarm Clock!); THE LONELY ONES- Miserlou; THE NATION ROCKIN' SHADOWS- Anesthesia;
THE NEW DIMENSIONS- Cat On A Hot Foam Board (with 13 yr old Michael Lloyd,
a future member of the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band); THE NEWPORT
NOMADS- Blue Mallard; THE PHANTOMS- XL-3; THE PROGRESSIVES- Hot Cylinders;
THE VISTAS- Moon Relay; and the title track by TOMMY & THE HUSTLERS-
Diggin' Out. This magnificent compilation of cool surf instrumentals is
pristine, and STILL FACTORY SEALED!
