Here are some somewhat surf related or of the times tracking sheets I found on the internet. Pretty interesting, eh?

Those are pretty interesting! I wonder what the first session was cut for. The second must be for The Knights Hot Rod High album, then a Good Vibrations session and the Monkees! Very cool. I didn't recognize the "real" names a few of those musicians, like Jerry Kolbrak, Steve Kreisman, Russell Bridges, and Peter Thorkelson! |

Websurfer, the second sheet is the attachment to the first, so they are both for The Hot Doggers. http://www.satanspilgrims.com |

Oh, thanks Ted, I see those dates now too. I don't know why this didn't occur to me before by I was thinking that's awfully early for a Pipeline cover, (something like three months from the original), but then I looked up Surfin' USA and the Hot Doggers session took place just about a week after the release of the BB single of the same name! I don't quite understand multiple competing releases. One thing for sure, it speaks to the surf/hot rod craze of the time and how quick these companies were to jump on the bandwagon.

Not only the same songs by different groups , but auditions of singers and players within the groups, It was very competitive back then during the studio player era, that's why the music was so good back then. Lot's of recycling of proven techniques that worked before etc. Many instrumental groups were fake as well or made up just to sell more records in grocery stores etc, The $ 1.88 LP's produced and performed by the very same players. Some bar bands were hired to impersonate many of these groups. That even continued into the 1970's. The Grassroots started out as impersonators like that. |
