Even if you know jack about early '60s surf music, you've run into one of the biggies by Orange County's the Lively Ones--unless you've somehow managed to avoid Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece, <I>Pulp Fiction</I>. The title track from their debut album serves as an eerie counterpoint to Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta's film assassinations mainly because of the slightly demented guitar troika of Jim Masoner (lead), Ed Chiaverini (rhythm), and Ron Griffith (bass). And everything else here is just as sparkling. "Surf Beat" is propelled by a tsunami of reverb, and the Lively Ones' obligatory run through of "Misirlou," while not as manic as Dick Dale's version (how could it be?), still sounds mighty fine. --Jud Cost

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Let's go trippin'!.......2004-04-30

This is the first album by the prolific surf band The Lively Ones. It features "Surf Rider", which is their best known song. "Surf Rider" was originally recorded by The Ventures under the lousy title "Spudnik". The Lively Ones recording is the definitive version. The album also includes cover versions of other people's surf songs, plus a handful of originals. All the songs are well played, although in most cases they can't match the original versions. Oddly, they start off the album with three Dick Dale songs. But it's still an enjoyable album. Recommended to surf music fans.
