Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Royal Fingers ROCK!.......2003-12-16

This CD is Excellent! Sammy and the Royal Fingers have successfully recaptured the spirit of the 60's Japanese ELEKI movement. The covers of Yuzo Kayama's Black Sand Beach and Violet Sky are standouts on this CD. In addition to paying tribute to Kayama, you can tell The Royal Fingers really love Takeshi Terauchi; Test Driver really rocks!
It's high time a record like this got exposure in the USA.
Plus, Sammy's guitar playing is lighting fast and fun!
With the tightness of this combo, and the shear fun they seemed to have recording this...I can't wait for the next release from The Royal Fingers!
The "Low-Fi Surf Underground" will love it, the only reason I didn't give it a higher rating is because the production is not quite HI-Fi enough for my taste, but not as slick as a newer Ventures CD.
