The SURFARIS were from Glendora, California, a high octane garage guitars-ago-go surf group remembered for "Wipe Out," the number two 1963 hit that ranks as one of the great rockers of the 60's.
"Wipe Out" featuring a classic up-and-down guitar riff and a classic solo drum roll break, both of which were emulated by millions (the number is no exaggeration) of teen-scene garage rock & rollers around the globe. The Surfaris recorded follow-up albums, like the highly scarce "Hit City '65" and singles in the mid-'60s.
The Surfaris were not extraordinary, but they were more talented than the typical one-shot garage-rock group; drummer Ron Wilson was praised by session stickman extraordinaire Hal Blaine, and his uninhibited splashing style sounds like a direct ancestor to Keith Moon. He also took the lead vocals on the group's occasional mid '60s classic Beach Boys sound which is featured on the HIT CITY '65 Lp and is highly consistent through both sides delivering prime mid sixties grooves.

                 CONDITION: The cover: rated: M- in factory shrink wrap, down-draded a bit for age-toning on back cover in white borders which is normal for 60's covers once they hit the 50 year half century mark. Still a prime example of a classic scarcity you don't easily run across especially a copy in original shrink wrap and original sixties store price sticker on outer cellophane.  There are no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing  ...

The vinyl: Rated: "EX" (excellent), played a little bit over the past 54 years but relatively careful, aside from a few nothing audible scuffs, it's a minty-clean audio winner! Both Decca labels are CLEAN
                                                                      A cool addition to anyone's music library!
