Just as a head's up for anyone that hasn't grabbed one of these yet...if you're considering spending $39.99 for iTunes, please realize that a brand-new, complete hard copy can be purchased through Amazon's affiliates for only $7.37 more! And this is factoring in shipping!

Finally convinced KFJC's music department to buy this. I am so impressed! Maybe I have less experience with this era than some of you, but there are many, many bands and songs here that are new to me. I think it will work well to play one or two tracks every week on my show, using the liner notes to give more information.
Thumbs up!

It's a damned impressive collection. Most of the stuff on it that wasn't new to me was certainly relatively recent.

Even as much as I critisized this release for the mp3 sound, and the disc 2 that won't play in my cd player. I gave it as gift to somebody. But then when I saw one at Amoeba, I bought if for myself again.

Excellent! And for those who can't afford to buy the whole box at once, single CD's of each disc have been issued.

I thought I saw the others at Amoeba in L.A. But perhaps they only have Vol 1.

I had a listen again because of this post. First thing that jumps out at me is the drumming. Great energy, great fills...super tight and really propels the music. 80 ft wave just grooves in an r&b/garage sort of way. And yes, Desert Wind is really cool. Great collection, so many less well known bands that were good.

I finally snagged a copy of this collection. WOW, fantastic all round! Love the book. Just a great collection, and at least half of this was new to me, maybe more. I found this site listed in the places to visit section, so here I am. Cool site, though I was hoping to find a good 'reviews' section so I can discover more surf gems. Seems like a friendly place, which is a relief.
Ok...carry on and nice to meet you.
