Bilge ???
That's for losers !! 
Right now I'm listening to a song called "Shit Sandwich" by Satan's Pilgrims. I dunno I'm really trying to educate myself on this Third Wave of Surf Music but I still much prefer JFK-era. I really like that wailing sax vs. too much "drip, drip, drip". I would post that opinion on SG101 but it would only make me an outcast (vs. all of the love and respect that I get on TC).
Also did you know you can download the Rhesus Monkeys on iTunes now ?? Unbelievable !!

Back to the First Wave.
My CD of "The Best of the New Dimensions" arrived in the mail today. This early 1960's Surf band was comprised of 13-15 year olds !!
They recorded several albums which were targeted straight for the cut out bins.
They however hold their own (IMHO) with the best of them including icons like Dick Dale, the Belairs, and the Surfaris (Original and non-Original).
It's shocking how much great Surf music was recorded from 1961-1965 that flew low and under the radar.

The slurpy sound the straw makes at the bottom of a cocktail.
It is a really sad sound.

The difference should be that this thread should only contain music relevant to this particular sub-forum.

Yeah, one of my all time favorite surf bands! Front cover shot at Waikiki Beach.
Currently listening to my somewhat trashed copy of Bob Romeo's great Aphrodisia album.

Ya know, I've always thought that album cover (along with the Sentinal's "Surfer Girl" album cover based on the same photo shoot) was pretty risque for the time.
We're talking about 13-14 year olds cavorting with much more "mature" ladies. Those lucky lucky kids.

My main thought about those two album covers have always been that the Sentinals must have been totally pissed off by having a rival band (Michael Lloyd and Jimmy Greenspoon of the New Dimensions) on the front cover of their album!
