After peak of instrumental and surf music in 1962 and '63 when
the Ventures, the Shadows, Dick Dale, Duane Eddy, Beach Boys and
others
were sitting comfortably on the top of charts
and had a lot of teenage followers all around the world
the endless summer ended
with the British Invasion - lads like Stones and the Who didn't surf.
Long era of obscurity followed until new explosion in
early 90s when Dick Dale's 1962 cover of "Misirlou" got big play
in Pulp Fiction and surf music revived with
old dinosaurs
like
Dick Dale,
the Ventures
recording new material
and musicians of next generations
evolving old tradition with punk/ska/hard rock touch.
Now there are surf muzos everywhere, good and bad,
and there is a number of names to mention, like
Los Straitjackets,
Man Or Astro-men?,
Laika and the Cosmonauts,
but there are zillions of new records appearing every day,
so here goes my personal selection, I hope you'll like it.
