tobyroan Joined: May 01, 2011 Posts: 3 Raleigh, NC	Posted on Aug 02 2012 09:57 AM Demon Surf! arrived at my place yesterday, and I'm with everybody else on this one — it's terrific. Bob, I'm not sure what's going on in the South, but I'm sure glad it is! Toby Top
WoodyJ Joined: Apr 05, 2006 Posts: 1544 Bethlehem, GA	Posted on Aug 02 2012 10:06 AM Wow, thanks for the kind words, guys. The finished product was just received from the duplicator last Friday and I sent out a few promo copies. We're working on a distribution deal with a fellow SG101-er with a familiar record label so we haven't started marketing or promoting the album yet. I previously posted a pic of the front cover earlier in this thread. Here is one of the inside pages with the song list/info in case anyone is interested. Lots of variety, mostly original songs, definitely not a "concept" album. — Jack Booth (aka WoodyJ) The Mariners (1964-68, 1996-2005) The Hula Hounds (1996-current) The X-Rays (1997-2004) The Surge!

WoodyJ will be making an announcement on SG101 very soon about it.

Klas Joined: Feb 26, 2006 Posts: 2292 Stockholm, Sweden	Posted on Aug 20 2012 06:13 AM Added some more Japanese picture sleeve 45s to the collection... I thought I was familiar with every single instro the Astronauts ever recorded but guess I was wrong... Japan only release of their takes on "Goldfinger" and "The James Bond Theme" featuring standard rock'n'roll arrangements of both songs (still the band is crediting themselves on the label alongside Barry and Norman, haha). No tank reverb or Jim Gallagher's trademark drumming which was a bit disappointing but not really surprising even though this is supposed to be a 1964 release. The recordings sound pretty crude and my guess is that they were recorded in Japan during the same session as their (although less crude) "Che Che Che" 45 which has a pic of the band in what I assume is the Japanese studio. The Ventures' instrumental take on Yuzo Kayama's great "Yuhi Wa Akaku". Flipside is the Ventures original "Up, Up And Away" off their Batman album. Not a huge fan of "Hokkaido Skies" with its acoustic lead guitar but the flip "Tokyo Nights" is really good. Japan only relase. The Blue Comets. English language version of their hit "Blue Eyes" with the great instro "Blue Comets '66" for the B-side. — T H E ✠ S U R F I T E S Top

IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Aug 20 2012 08:55 AM I've finally been able to tear myself away from the El Ray CDs, and have been listening to these two recent acquisitions: Bang! Mustang: The Big Twang Theory (Berlin, Germany) The Concussions: Fall in Love with... (Grand Rapids, MI) image REALLY enjoying both CDs! The more I hear them, the more I like them, too.

IvanP Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 10331 southern Michigan	Posted on Aug 20 2012 02:22 PM Currently giving this the first spin: image So far I like it quite a bit! I actually quite liked their last one, '09's "The Further Advetures of...", but this one may be even better. Nice to see them back in full force! (Been many years since I've seen them last, but it looks like they're not really coming very close to me on this tour... bummer...) — Ivan Lords of Atlantis on Facebook The Madeira Official Website The Madeira on Facebook The Blair-Pongracic Band on Facebook The Space Cossacks on Facebook The Madeira Channel on YouTube Top

Yeah, I know it's not a surf album. Top
websurfer Joined: May 14, 2007 Posts: 1753	Posted on Aug 20 2012 03:32 PM Great find, Klas! Interesting info on the Astronauts. All of your Japanese 45 covers would make a great coffee table book.

Klas wrote: I thought I was familiar with every single instro the Astronauts ever recorded but guess I was wrong...

I snagged that one last year but it wasn't until I dropped a crate of spy records off at Big Tiki Dude's for him and Tiki Tena's DJ sets at Tiki Oasis that I found out it was the Astronauts. (Jeff recognized a few of the band members on the cover.) It reeeeally doesn't sound like them. That Blue Comets single is killer. — That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. Top
