I really like these songs and I want to buy the CDs, but I can't identify the albums, because I don't know the artists or the song titles. Can you please listen to them and tell me if you know them:

Surf one: Dick Dale 'Nitro'
Surf two sounds like the Torpedoes but that is just a guess. I have no idea about the other surf ones.

Brian,
I'm going to buy Tribal Thunder this weekend. Thanks for figuring that one out and I'll also take a look at The Torpedoes.
I taped these songs off of KFJC college radio during the mid 90s using the cassette recorder on my radio. These songs were the last songs on each side of the cassettes and I wasn't able to get the song listings that the DJs announced after each set, because the tape ran out.
Hopefully, someone else can figure out the other tunes.
steve

Mom, was that you I saw on #3 shootin' the curl?
That footage was unreal. How high were those waves? It looked like a Tsunami.

Surf two is a personal favorite:
"The Moth Dance" by Huevos Rancheros (Endsville CD)
I'm thinking Surf four might be by Los Straightjackets (guitar sounds like it)
I'll have to do more research on the rock and jazz songs, it may require watching many times, er, I mean listening many times...

Thanks to "donsdad", "NeedsMoreReverb" and "TwangOmatic" for solving the identity of the jazz, surftwo and surffive songs.
Bikini, thong, wet t-shirt and party girl photos were purely on display to hold the male listeners attention for the entire duration of the tune. They were assembled from random photos that my friends occasionally e-mail to me.
Surfing footage was cut and pasted from existing youtube videos:

I thought it was a big coincidence that the song "Topsy" was accompanied by wet T shirt pictures.

Topsy Part II was originally released in 1957 on an Lp called "Cozy Cole Hits, as well as on 45 on the "Love" label. There are some bootleg cds out there that are of decent quality vinyl transfers. This song has also been on one or two of the Rhino Rock Instrumental cds, and one of the Ace instrumental compilations.
