BUSTIN’ SURFBOARDS
THE TORNADOES
JOSIE 4005
Classic rare surf LP that became famous when Quentin Tarantino included the title track in “Pulp Fiction.” From collection of the original owner. LP is very clean with minor scuffs that do not affect play. Just spinned it on my Rega Planar 2 turntable and it sounds great. Cover – front is very clean, back has “AUDITION RECORD” stamp and minor wear (see photos). Generic audiophile inner sleeve.
Non-smoking home.
Packed carefully and sent promptly.
AllMusic Review by Cub Koda "The Tornadoes' biggest hit became the title track of this, their only album, which also includes acknowledged surf classics like "Shootin' Beavers" and "The Gremmie." The inclusion of three bonus tracks (including the previously unreleased "Charge of the Tornadoes") make this a must-own for fans of the surfin' sound."
"This is the celebrated only album from the (Hollywood) Tornadoes, plus some single sides. The Hollywood Tornadoes were a raw band. Ron Wilson of the Surfaris used to rave about their raw and vital sound... them and the Nobles. The three Sanders brothers plus a drummer made up this Echo-Plex Surf band who pioneered the growlie ominous tribal side of Surf with "Bustin' Surfboards." By the time they released "The Gremmie parts 1 & 2", they had adjusted their name to the Hollywood Tornadoes and eventually the Nu Tornadoes to avoid confusion with the British band Joe Meek made famous with "Telstar." Their CD is a really important part of a Surf library. Their sound often employed too much use of EchoPlex, but there's some absolutely necessary surf here as well." – Phil Dirt
