Album Description
The carefree Tornadoes didn't give a rat's ass about anything but surfin' & baggin' beavers. And the world became a better place for their callous indifference to fine brass plating. Remastered reissue features 3 bonus tracks - 'The Gremmie-Pt. 2', 'Beyond The Surf' & 'Charge Of The Tornadoes' (previously unissued). Sundazed Music.
Customer Reviews:
Very Cool, Though Not Everything Works!.......2004-08-07
When they are at the top of their game on this CD, The Tornadoes are pure 100% Surf-Guitar, nothing watered down! Starting off mellow & cool with "Busting Surfboards," then going into the exotic "Malaguena" (same melody as the Russian folk song "Dark Eyes"), and then into... "Summertime?" That, and "Old Shep" really seemed out of place on a surf CD. Both of these songs had vocals, which were not one of The Tornadoes' stronger points! Their cover of "Johnny B. Goode" wasn't terrible, but... sorry, Chuck Berry is the only one who can do that one "just right!"
The rest of the CD is very good. This is one of those bands that should have stayed away from vocals; their tunes with lyrics seem to mask their too-cool surf-sound, but their instrumental pieces are incredible!
