Product Description
From a master string-king of the sixties comes this wild Sundazed reverb torpedo! Al Casey, the axe-man extraordinaire of the 60's L.A. session scene, waxed this rare longplayer under his own name in '63. Produced by the legendary Lee Hazlewood, the grooves are filled with echoey sonic blasts and big guitar crunch! All tracks in stereo!

5 out of 5 stars One Of The Best Surf Albums Ever!.......2006-02-28

Al Casey has the best (wettest!) surf tone I've ever heard on this fantastic 1963 album. I love pretty much all the instrumental surf music of this era (from the Del-Fi stuff to The Astronauts, etc.) and this record - along with The Rumblers - is one of my all-time favorites. Some people might say Al Casey was just a studio musican cashing in on a craze, but man the stars were just aligned on this session! The only weak songs are two goofy vocal tracks (really goofy). Aside from those, this is pure reverb heaven. An interesting sidenote: this was produced by cult superstar, Lee Hazelwood (Genius songwriter, Duane Eddy partner and Nancy Sinatra star-maker). He is credited with writing six of these songs. Al Casey also played on almost all of Hazelwood's solo albums. Love it!
