Color Of Vinyl Subject To Change Without Notice / Call To Confirm Colored Copies Are Still Available

The mid-seventies saw a resurgence in surf and hot rod music thanks mainly to huge popularity of The Beach Boys “Endless Summer” compilation album. Music lovers were looking to expand their musical thirst for more summertime fare as groups like Flash Cadillac & The Continental Kids were already on the scene, thanks to films like “American Graffiti” and appearances on rock T.V. shows like “The Midnight Special.”

The boys hit big on Top 40 radio with “Did You Boogie” (With Your Baby)” featuring the "The Midnight Special" and “American Graffiti” DJ star Wolfman Jack. The Private Stock label single was a fond throwback to the beach music scene in the Carolinas, with its alluring sound and memorable hooks.

This version of the song was later added to the great album “Sons of the Beaches” which is great conceptual album that truly bring back memories of the beach, hot summer girls, hot rods and surfing. Basically, one of the finest summertime tribute albums that can entertain the listener every day of the year.

The LP kicks off with Surf City’s own P.F. Sloan’s classic “Summer Means Fun” to be followed with more great tracks like the Beach Boys inspired “Time Will Tell” and the brilliant “Hot Summer Girls”

More greatness follows with stellar tracks like “Good Times Rock & Roll” and the the awesome sound of “It’s A Summer Night.”

To celebrate its 50th Anniversary, Friday Music is including for the first time anywhere on LP, the super rare 45 of the Roy Wood Wizzard classic “See My Baby Jive” With its Phil Spector/Ronnettes flavor throughout, it truly adds even more brilliance to this album.
