Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Awsome Avengers!!!.......2005-03-07

This album is a surf music classic! A friend recommended this rare album years ago and I recently found out that it was re-released in 2001. The original vinyl is a collectable and is worth a couple of hundred dollars but the real value is the music. The album consists of cover and original songs with great organ/piano riffs and surf guitars. If you're a surf music buff then this album is for you!

3 out of 5 stars Just because it's "rare" doesn't mean you want it.......2004-01-20

The original vinyl pressing of this album is supposedly one of the rarest surf albums of all time. If you happen to come across it at a garage sale, buy it! It's worth hundreds of dollars as a collectible.

Now they've taken the original master tapes out of the vault and released this album on CD. Skip it. While the musicians seem to know what they're doing from a technical point of view - the actual playing is almost flawless - this album just doesn't have any character. It's dull and boring. Just turning the reverb up on the guitar doesn't make it surf. Good surf guitar makes you feel like grabbing a board and running out into the water, even if you've never surfed in your life and you live in Iowa. This album doesn't do that.
