I received my copy the other day and finally got to plug it in this morning. It exceeds my expectations in every respect - the quality of the engineering from top to bottom is superb, as are the performances! It'd be hard to pick standouts, they're all so good. I would like to know who the tenor sax player is, though...what a monster! |

Listened to this CD over the weekend. I must say I was deeply impressed by the engineering and mix. I'm not an expert by any means and my ears are missing (old age) mucho mid-range but everything, including the Bass, seems perfectly matched. Kudos to Mark and John. —Sound of the Surf, the movie Last edited: Sep 09, 2020 17:13:41 |

I’ve been hearing a lot of the songs on podcasts. But I finally had a chance to open mine and listen, 2 times on a trip down to San Diego yesterday. Amazing recording. And great to hear and remember parts of the show, as I’m usually running around doing things and talking to bands and fans at the event. I highly recommend getting this cd as it’s very collectable and of the highest quality. —Jeff(bigtikidude) |

The "Waves of Care" CD was released last year at the peak of the Covid pandemic. All proceeds have gone to, and continue to go to, the MusiCares Covid-19 Relief Fund. This fund helps those in the music business who have been dramatically affected by the pandemic. While many parts of the world have "opened up" and live music is beginning to be experienced once again, new variants of the virus abound. It is NOT over and there is still a need to support the affected, and those who could still be affected, in the weeks and months ahead. And so.... Since copies of the "Waves of Care" CD are still available I've reduced the price. If you do not have a copy of this CD, now's the time. If you've already ordered a copy, please order more and give one to a friend (or to replace the one you've already worn out!!). The "Waves of Care" CD is a compilation of bands that performed at the 2018 Surf Guitar 101 Convention in Torrance, California. There are three bonus tracks from bands that played the previous year at the Convention. 27 tracks total for 79+ minutes of amazing surf band performances that include Les Agamemnonz (France), Surfer Joe (Italy), Urban Surf Kings (Canada), the Tremolo Beer Gut (Denmark), and 11 bands from the US of A. Ask anyone who's heard this CD and they'll tell you to grab a copy before they're gone!!! Support MusiCares and support MUSIC!!! Including postage, "Waves of Care" is now priced at $13 (US), $25 (Canada/Mexico), $26 (Europe), and $30 (Australia/Asia). Available at www.johnblair.us/giftshop.htm and on eBay. Digital downloads are still available at Bandcamp. —www.johnblair.us Last edited: Apr 05, 2022 14:00:01 |

Bumping this thread to note that a few copies of the "Waves of Care" CD are still available at www.johnblair.us. And again, all proceeds go to the MusiCares Covid-19 Relief Fund. While so many have given up on masking, 6-foot separation, and staying away from large indoor gatherings, this pandemic is not over and it continues to impact musicians and live performances. MusiCares is a worthwhile organization (that even helped Paul Johnson during his battle with leukemia several years ago). If you don't have a copy of this CD, or want another copy, now's the time. — |
