Reverb...popping...splashy....wet sound....ALL OVER THE BOARD....pun intended.

MEL AND THE SLOVENIAN BOYS...have put together a brilliant idea...and John Blair knows WHAT I LOVE...FIRST WAVE....rarites....and John used to send me cassettes years ago with 90 minutes of tunes I HAD NEVER HEARD OF...well...thanks to John...I have heard of alot of these tunes...THE ORIGINAL...WIDELY VIEWED AS...FIRST SURF VERSIONS OF THE SONGS on this compilation.

30 selections...MY FAVES...Ghost Hop....Banzai Washout..Surf Rider (I BELIEVE THE VENTURES DID THIS FIRST...but under a different name...the clue being it was written by Nokie Edwards)....DARK EYES..perhaps my favorite cut...now I gotta research it...and collect versions of it like I do MISIRLOU...The even had an ORIGINAL tune thrown in...inspired by the song TAHITI.....PENDELTON SURF...cool with the Huey f! lying across my room at the beginning...THE BREEZE & I....a tune I heard the night I met CATERINA VALENTE...she had a hit with it...then years past and JON & THE NIGHTRIDERS covered and improved it...well the BITCH BOYS carry on where John Blair left it...phenominal version here.....I LOVED ALL 30 tunes...and have played it over and over...

FINE EFFORT ROBI AND THE GANG...I HOPE YOU TOUR CALIFORNIA ONE DAY...AND I GET TO HEAR YOU LIVE....
