I’ve had a soft spot for surf music ever since I became fascinated with both Agent Orange and JFA, so this collection, an apparent “best of” set from a Northwestern group who were contemporaries, but apart from, the grunge scene that took over that area of the country in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, was a nice bit of listening for me. It’s all surf instrumentals—thirty tracks worth—and they’re mighty fine tunes at that. I’d heard the name before, but had never bothered to investigate, so this was a nice, welcome surprise. Cool take on the Godfather theme, too.
