From DIY magazine, July 1981. Reviewer notes, "...because music travels in cycles, and because this purely instrumental music is fairly limited in sound and concept, the odds are the new surf revival, if it happens at all outside of Los Angeles, will be a passing fad. The live Nightriders' album, for all its high spirits, healthy energy and unbridled fun, is at heart a novelty record."

A passing fad, eh?

That reviewer would have had a great career at Rolling Stone, who were notorious for making such "insightful" pronouncements!

I like the part about "John digs up obscure old surf songs.. that we then pump up. The kids think they're originals"
