Double crap
and really, what is going on with the illustration of the Beach Boys? Brian looks like a primate with a beehive hairdo.

crap
this sh^% has been around on el cheapo cassettes for decades. I guess it is the original recordings (Beach Boys), casue it's the crummy demos Murray Wilson shopped around in between punching out Brian. On the other hand, the J&D stuff are recuts from after Dean's accident. And you really want to hear Little Deuce Coupe by the BB and Surf City by J&D. Not that bad though, if you're paying $1.00 and know what you're getting.
Dodgy Cover Photos

Surfers Still Rule
I lived in California when these groups were getting famous. To us, they were bigger than the Beatles.
These are demos, not the hits!
Except for tracks 1-4 which were demos cut in 1961 for Candex records before they signed with Capitol. The Jan and Dean tracks are cheap remakes.
Actually the Originals!!!!!
I found that not many of the albums on here were from the originals, but this is one of those few that are!!!!! I thought that the "digitaly remastered" would ruin it, but it's great!!!

But we know music can cure a sun storm. Why deprive yourself of these easy steps to beating the heat? more »
Rockin' In The Sunshine: The California Sound
By eMusic Editorial Staff, eMusic Contributor
Call it sun-kissed. Or sun-dappled. Or sun-struck. Just know that the sounds of California are a beguiling, seriously specific brand of music. From hazy hippies to hard-bitten hip-hop, there's an ineffable quality to our neighbors on the Left Coast. One listen to any of these acts will transport you to the country's smoothest sector. Get your Ray Bans ready, this is Cali music. more »
