This thread really DOES work! I know of at least 3 people that have found their "holy grails" because of mentioning them here. Insect Surfers |

A few of us ordered that one straight from the label and it turned out to be a CD-R with pro artwork. —That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

How were the recordings, though? That sounds like something else I need to find. |

Yeah, me too. I was supposed to get one, I think. What happened? I would love to hear how good our gear can sound. What struck me at the time in the control room was how different it was than our overall tone. That old "all in the fingers" adage is so true. And I made a significant amount of racket during the proceedings, much to Phil Dirt's visible dismay through the window. Excuse my egotism, but if any of it could not be removed with some kind of anti-half-drunk-caterwauling ProTools plugin, and survives to the final master, it will cause me small joy. — |

I think you're talking about the new Live @ KFJC, Trey. I was referring to their 2005 album called Surf Session. Just looked at the website and it says "Vinyl version of "Surf Session" will be out on September, moreover the album will be reprint very soon on CD with new video of "Playa Inferno" inside." So looks like I wont have to wait too long! Woo! I guess I need to find another grail... hmmm... |

Hey! New to this site, and this forum is just what I was looking for! I always loved surf music as a kid (60's San Jose). Now that I'm older and land-locked, listening to my collection of Cds bring back memories of a simpler time. Starting with Rhino's Cowabunga set, surf guitar greats(Rounder/Umgd), and the Bambi's-13 from the Hip, and a lot of help from Reverb Central, the hunt to add to my music has lead me through the internet to a lot of great folks who share this passion with me. Now I'm here and perhaps I can knock down a few more Grails. Pollo del Mar's "Year of the Rooster" on CD. Ferenc,Nokie,and Shigeo Any of the KFJC fundriser CDs -Homage to Phil and his reviews Surfin' the Midwest volume#3 I understand its the only volume on CD |

Thanks to my brotha JONPAUL, I got one of my holy grails!! I just got SURF SESSION by Bradipos IV Now on my list is The Fathoms FATHOMLESS There is one on ebay for $41.00. That's a little much, imo. But if anyone else spots one for cheaper, let me know! |

Would love to get a decent quality recording (mp3 would do) of the Bristols version of Diamondhead. Saw it on a '60's surf comp but when I went back to order it months later the website was gone. http://www.mediafire.com/listen/34yghi2oxf8decz/Bristols_-_Diamond_Head.mp3[/URL] —Peter http://www.youtube.com/user/jenipete |

Nice! I didn't know about that one. Since this thread started I've added Dumb Loud Hollow Twang on vinyl, and I got the Spaces Cossacks cassette and the Bambi Molesters cassette. |
