Re: TOP TEN Surf Albums of all time?

Jeff (bigtikidude) - 12 Oct 2005 19:49:35

You are correct Neal
The Original Surfaris never released a album.
I beleive they had 4 or 5 singles, and a bunch of tunes on
Compilation albums.
If you get the Sundazed cd, the Surfari bootleg vinyl and
the Lost Legends of surf guitar vol. IV-I think.
then you have all the stuff they recorded.
