Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: New Surf Coasters @ Double Crown

Ferenc Dobronyi (ferencnd) - 28 Feb 2005 23:38:50

All of the tracks are new recordings, if not new
songs.
The Surf Coasters are compeled by their fans in Jp to
record "Miserlou" for every album. They re-recorded
"Dreams" because it is something of a well known song
in America, as Phil Dirt has featured that song for
years (it originally came out on their first CD, Surf
Panic '95) the SCs were surprized to learn that people
in the US knew about, and they had never played it
live until last year's tour. I don't think the new
version is very good, compared to the original, kind
of limp, but the first album is long out of print, so,
if you want "Dreams" this is what you get. "Bumble
Bee" is by far the most outstanding version of this
song I have ever heard. Unbelievable. The rest of the
album is a rippin' blast. The US version has live cuts
recorded in Japan (probably at the same show the DVD
was recorded), the Japanese version features a handful
of songs recorded byy Mr. Dirt at KFJC last year. and
yeah, ZptDuda should have them as well.
