Album Description

This collection by the Central Coast, CA combo who routinely pummeled the local competition in 'Battle of the Surf Bands' and was the Impacts' cross-town rivals before both signed to Del-Fi -- blends Latin melodies with slurpy, splashy reverb-drenched surf sounds. 'Latin'ia' solidified their place in surf rock history. This CD has everything the band recorded for Del-Fi including the albums Big Surf! and Surfer Girl.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE BEST SURF CDs YOU CAN BUY.......2006-11-04

At 27 tracks this is really a generous helping of Sentinals material, and they definitely were one of the most skilled of all the original surf bands in the early 60s. It should be noted too that this contains all the tracks from the "Surfer Girl" cd/lp (although in a different track-order), making that one mandatory only for collectors. "Sunset Beach" is the one to get, and the Del-Fi original issue is becoming very hard-to-find, especially the non cut-out copies!

4 out of 5 stars The Sun Never Sets On The Sentinals!.......2004-04-05

The Sentinals formed in 1961 in San Luis Obispo, California. The original lineup consisted of Tommy Nunes on lead guitar, Peter Graham on rhythm guitar, Gary Winburne on bass guitar, Bobby Holmquist on saxophone and Johnny Barbata on drums. By the time the Sentinals recorded their two albums, Harry Sackrider took over on rhythm guitar, Kenny Hinkle took over on bass guitar and vocals, and Mike Olson joined on piano. This CD contains both of their albums, "Surf's Up!" (1963) and "Surfer Girl" (1964), plus a bonus track from the "KFWB Battle Of The Surf Bands" album. The opening instrumental features Johnny Barbata yelling "Big Surf!" at certain intervals, starting this collection off on a rocking note. "Latin'ia" is a very melodic instrumental with a distinctive Latin beat, and was a big hit on the West Coast. "Latin Soul" is more of a hard rocking instrumental, similar to "Latin'ia" in name only.
