Revival? did something die? Gosh here's me thinking it was all new and the party had just begun.

The 70's happened!

No Jake there wasn't such thing as surf until the 90s when the Bambi Molesters invented it. OK, serious question while these lists flow in. Who was the very first proper modern day European surf band.

I agree with just about everyone here that this is too damn tough (C'mon--One Madeira song? One Laika & the Cosmonauts song? Geez!!)

To narrow things down as best as possible, I took a different tack: What songs, upon hearing for the first time, did I like so much I wanted my band to play them? If the song is worth learning, teaching to your band, and showing off to the public in your area, but not something you wrote, it therefore must be good, right?

So here's my list, in no special order:

  1. Atomic Mosquitos--Hank Scorpio
  2. The Exotics--Lariat
  3. Laika & the Cosmonauts--Boris the Conductor
  4. Aqualads--Washout
  5. The Noseriders--Corduroy Summer
  6. Shadow Men on a Shadowy Planet--Egypt Texas
  7. Insect Surfers--MIG Alley
  8. Los Straitjackets--Rockula
  9. Untamed Youth--Contentment
  10. The Madeira--Jungle Drums

--Crispy

  1. Satan’s Pilgrims - La Cazuela
  2. The Ghastly Ones - Los Campiones del Justicio
  3. Los Twang! Marvels - Eyesore
  4. The Treble Spankers - Jaa-Rabbi
  5. 3 Balls of Fire - Lonesome Tide
  6. Insect Surfers - Dorsal Fin
  7. El Ray - El Coyote
  8. Los Twang! Marvels - Sea of Glory
  9. The Space Cossacks - Tsar Wars
  10. The Surf Coasters - Sea Knows
  11. Frankie & The Pool Boys - No Surf Today
  12. The Penetrators - Night of The Drunken Cheerleaders
  13. Planet Seven - Young and Useless
  14. The Supertones - Point of Know Return

plus a few revival era interpretations of older songs
The Hellbenders - The Hellbenders
New World Relampagos - Numancia
The Madeira - Almoraima
Bitch Boys - Dracula’s Theme

in no particular order.

Couldn’t manage 10. Got the list down to 14 by getting rid of a few that had already been mentioned, Aqua Velvets, Treble Spankers, Los Twang! Marvels, The Madeira, Aqualads, The Phantom Four, The Surf Trio, etc……

It's interesting to see the trends. Clearly, I like some songs that the rest of you like. It's as clear that I like some of the bands that you like. It's even more clear that some of my choices are out there somewhere.

And since I can, here's a bit of why to go with the what.

  1. Jon & The Nightriders - Depth Charge

Bought Fiberglass Jungle on a trip back to Madison from Austin. First listened to it in a U-Haul moving back to Madison from Austin. Hit me like a punch in the gut.

  1. Frankie And The Poolboys - Ewa On The Beach

Just a great melody.

  1. The Swiv-O-Matics - Metallic Blue Bikini

For a long time, all I had was an except from this. Then I got the CD, based on playing that 30 seconds over and over and over...

  1. The Volcanoes - Doheney Dawn

Another one from the same trip as Fiberglass Rocket. One of the tunes that got me into the genre.

  1. The Atomic Mosquitos - Love Canal

Had it as a freebie for a long time. Darned near wore a groove in the hard drive playing it.

  1. The Boss Martians - Double A Growler

Sure, the BMs had a bunch of great stuff. But this is the one I can play in my head. I can't do that with XKE!

  1. Dick Dale & Stevie Ray Vaughan - Pipeline

It was this or Nitro. But guess which I play more often?

  1. The Bomboras - War Of The Satellites

The third from the infamous road trip back home. Another great band, but which song? Well, for me the one with traces of Telstar in it!

  1. The Ghastly Ones - Ghastly Stomp

Yes, many prefer Haulin' Hearse. But this is a great piece.

  1. The Madeira - Tribal Fury

Another one of those great bands that has to be on the list, but which song? Well, this one. And the only one on the list I've heard played live.

Very interesting your choice about Les Agamemnonz!!!
