RAWEST and FINEST Surf Comp! Nab it before it fades!.......2002-04-09

"Bustin' Surfboards" is not just one of the solid exceptions, but one of the rawest and most intense collections of surf tunes you will find anywhere.

Now, while I enjoy old Beach Boys tunes, they are hardly what comes to mind when I think of surf music. Yet this CD opens up with a simple but rhythmic Beach Boys instrumental that has the Beachy feel that those Boys so often lack.

Gathering this collection was the work Jim Pewter and Neil Norman, who have compiled several other surf music compilations (including some good Dick Dale). All their compilations are good, but this collection hits the bullseye! All these tunes sound like they came from the Paradise of Garage Bands, all tunes with that exotic and sensual surf guitar edge to it.

The song that really grabbed me the most is "The Curl Rider" by The Surf Raiders, a swift song with each guitar strum giving that 60s Sci-Fi TV twang to it. Everbody from Ritchie Valens to Bobby Fuller to Dick Dale blasts this album with the essence of surf instrumentals.

"Bustin' Surfboards" isn't exactly hot of the presses. It's hung around the on & offline record shops for quite some time. It is a must for collectors of surf music; buy it before it disappears altogether!

Great summer music.......2001-10-13

Hang five !,BUT...........2000-12-19

But" moon dawg" the gamblers,and "outerlimits" the marketts can make up for songs that should be on here.,and at least all the tunes are by the original performers.

and an interesting tune by Ritchie Valens called "Fast Freight" wich is a insrumental but it sounds unfinished!

and the"Perfect Wave" by Niel Norman and "The lonely Surfer" by Jack Nitche close the cd .
