Surf’s up: 30 Totally Awesome Surf Instrumentals

Surf’s up: 30 Totally Awesome Surf Instrumentals


(Music Club, from £9.95)
Where will it take me? To a beach barbecue on a sun-baked dune on the West Coast of America; on a board catching a wave as it crests and comes ashore in Malibu; in a beat-up van full of boys and boards as it nears a wide expanse of sea.

What will I hear? Dynamic instrumentals of early Sixties surf music, including Misirlou (the Dick Dale tune that opens 'Pulp Fiction') and surf classic 'Wipe Out'.

In the company of? Musicians who discovered guitar reverb units: almost forgotten surf groups including The Original Surfaris and The Centurians.
