RE: [SurfGuitar101] Re: TOP TEN Surf Albums of all time?

Dave Becker (novapup2001) - 11 Oct 2005 14:57:29

For the modern era,
I would nominate
The Aquavelvets- The Aquavelvets
The Mermen - Krill Slippin'
Slacktone- Into The Blue Sparkle
Space Cossacks- Interstellar Stomp
The Blue Hawaiians- Sway
J&TN- Fiberglass Rocket
The Nebulas- Nebula One
The Eliminators- Unleashed
Los Straitjackets- Utterly Fantastic...
The Halibuts- Life On The Bottom
Surf Coasters- Miserlou,10th Anniversay Best
There's many more nominees, and I'm sure I've missed some "Oh yeahs!",
but
I'd like to understand what the criteria for choosing the TOP album is?
Subjective? Record sales? # weeks on the charts, etc. Usually ends up
being subjective, so...
My picks are simply based on the "must haves"/Desert Island Discs
criteria. No one should be without records like these in their
collections, almost regardless of tastes.
