The Riptides
Machine Gun / Deep Blue
Enjoy "Both Sides" The record sounds great in Very Good condition...heard no pops and minimal surface noise...still some but minimal
Here is a rare Surf cult classic. The record was recorded in Hollywood back in late 1959 by a group better know as Johnny Hudson And The Riptides. The record was popular in the LA area and went as high as in the Top 20 on some local radio stations- but never broke out nationally. They had another hit locally a year later with a song called Hanky Panky also on the Challenge label (not the same song as the Rainbows or Tommy James song). There were never many of these ever molded even on the maroon label as the record never developed into full production and less than a handful of white-label promos were passed out to only a few rock stations around the LA area. Here is your chance to own a rare Surf record
