4 out of 5 stars Big Noise from Waimea and Beyond.......2007-06-29

I bought these CD second, even though it was the first one released. Again I really enjoyed it as well, some great stuff here. Here you'll find Jim Messina(pre-Loggins & Messina)with his group the Jesters.Also a couple of great songs by a group called the Chandelles(El Gato & the Jetster) It pays to read the liner notes, you really get some great info into the time period and what was going on with theses groups. Also, a couple of songs from the hard to find "Original Surfaris" first Surf album. And the story behind them and the more well known So. Cal group we're all familiar with that released "Wipe Out", "Surfer Joe", etc..If you love the California West Coast sound, start collecting these CD's. It will help you fill in the musical gaps.

2 out of 5 stars Surf Music.......2007-03-13

Does not do well at all in the digital cd system in my car. Sounds horrible. Needs remastering to conform to the new systems.

5 out of 5 stars Lost Legends of Surf Guitar Vol1.......2005-09-25

Hard hitting, laid back style and makes you ready to catch the next big wave!
Worth the purchase....great tunes!

5 out of 5 stars great compilation of lesser known surf music.......2004-08-25

.........my title says it all. Great stuff here by some of the lesser knowns. But great nevertheless. If you like surf music, get this. I probably have over 70 CD's of surf music and this is one of the best. 'Nuff said.

5 out of 5 stars 60's surf trip!.......2004-04-11

This is excellent collection of songs. The songs are very lively and entertaining. The most stunning thing about this CD is the reproduction quality. A lot of the songs sound like like they were just recently recorded, the audio is that good. You can hear the big influence Dick Dale had with other musicians on this CD. Their second CD "lost legends of surf guitar 2" has less surf oriented tunes with more hot rod songs, it makes me wonder if I should bother buying the third CD of this collection. The pyramids had one of the top surf tunes in "penetration" but the two pyramid tunes on here just sound like copies of that tune with the same minor sounding desending riff. This is an exciting collection of songs for all surf music fans. I also recommend their second CD even though it has hot-rod tunes.

5 out of 5 stars the legend continues.......2006-02-19

This is the latest entry in the lost legend series and it is the best alblum since the very first lost legends alblum release. The songs match up and compliment each other better than any of the previous alblums in this series, so well that it sounds like a dance alblum. I give it a high recommendation for any surf music fan. Try alldirect.com for the best prices on this series of alblums.

4 out of 5 stars Really Cool Surf/Hot Rod Rock.......2007-06-29

I bought this CD first because it was reviewed as having a lot of Hot Rod rock on it(I am a big fan of Hot Rod Rock & am into Hot Rods myself). It does, although most of it is of the "Instrumental" variety with Hot Rod/Racetrack sound effects dubbed over the music in the background. That being said, it is a great CD with the pleasant suprise being a couple of unreleased Surfaris songs as well as some from David Marks(Early Beach Boys member)& his Marksmen. I particularly liked "Travelin", I could really hear the Beach Boys influence in that one. I also enjoyed "The Fugitive" from Jan Davis, right down to the baying bloodhounds. I was unfamiliar with him but enjoyed that one in particular. Also I liked a really funny song I hadn't heard before by the Tornadoes, "Shootin Beavers". These CD's are chock full of some classic old Surf/Hot Rod/California Sound songs, most long forgotten. Get it and Enjoy!

4 out of 5 stars Very cool.......2004-05-18

Of the set, this is my favorite CD. But be aware this music is not for everyone. If you like crazy surf music complete with drag racing sound effects, barking dogs, and crazed killer laughs then stop here and push the "Add to cart" button! The sound quality is nothing short of fantastic. Even though it is in Mono, it is the best sounding compilation CD I've ever heard. If you never heard anything other than the Surfaris or the Ventures, you should lay down cash for this.

4 out of 5 stars No Need To Panic!.......2003-11-12

Sundazed Records put a lot of time and effort into their surf guitar series. Although six of the twenty songs in this volume are hot rod instrumentals, they sound right at home among the obscure and previously unreleased surf instrumentals included in this collection. Jerry Cole And His Spacemen perform "Point Panic" as well as the Surfaris originally did. The Trashmen turn in a very good rendition of the Ventures' hit "Walk, Don't Run." "The Gremmie, Part 1" by the Tornadoes is a humorous song about beginning surfers. The Catalinas were a studio supergroup that consisted of guitarists Tommy Tedesco, Billy Strange and Jerry Cole, saxophonist Steve Douglas, and drummer Hal Blaine, with both Leon Russell and Bruce Johnston on piano! Their song "Banzai Washout" alone is worth the price of this CD.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Van Eps is stellar.......2006-11-30

This is an excellent album. The first twelve tracks are Johnny Smith, and he is a powerful guitar player. That being said, when the first Van Eps track, Cheek to Cheek, comes on, I am in heaven. If you like a clean, electric guitar sound that is extremely rich and full thanks to an added seventh string, the second half of the album will do you well. Van Eps makes lush, intricate music, and I can't get enough of it.

4 out of 5 stars intro to guitar greats to grandson.......2006-11-05

GREAT CD GOT THIS TO LET GRANDSON HEAR SOME GREAT GUITAR MUSIC AS HE IS LEARNING TO PLAY THE GUITAR HIMSELF.

4 out of 5 stars A pleasant surprise.......2006-08-04

As a guitarist, curiosity lead me to this recording. I have always been a fan of Johnny Smith. The surprise came when I discovered what a remarkable guitarist George Van Eps is. His style is so smooth and fluid and his use of the seven string adds a dimension few guitarists attain. The Johnny Smith half of the recording was a bit too neo-classical for my tastes but the George Vam Eps portion made up for it.

5 out of 5 stars Johnny Smith is THE greatest of all time.......2006-07-13

This albumm is another vintage GREAT PERFORMANCE by Johnny Smith who easily is the greatest guitar player of all time. Frankly, I hardly ever listen to the other half of the album but I do listen and thoroughly enjoy the GREAT Johnny Smith. If you love guitar YOU WILL LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!

5 out of 5 stars Two masters display their artistry of solo jazz guitar........1999-03-06

Taken from two separate sessions from legendary jazz guitar greats Johnny Smith and George Van Eps, this CD presents solo performances with unequaled technical mastery and harmonic sophistication. Johnny Smith plays a mixed selection of jazz standards, original tunes and classical pieces. His approach consistantly swings with spirit, precision and articulation. George Van Eps, arguably the father (grandfather?) of modern jazz guitar, reads through such tunes as 'A Foggy Day' & 'I Could Write a Book' before he completely (and amazingly) reconstructs them harmonically and melodically. For this disc to offer either of these two great players would have made it highly recommended, but to feature both, it becomes essential.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful, sensitive playing...........2003-11-02

Ah, reader, consider this album. I have been listening to Bayless music for years, from Bach Meets the Beatles to his crazy happy birthday album in a dozen styles (Stravinsky's Rite of Birthday, a favorite), but this one has something special going on. The playing is so beautifully, and sensitively played that one is really swept away by the original movie tune, interwound with a classical piece, so seamless and amazing. One of my all-time favorite albums.

5 out of 5 stars John Bayless is awesome.......2003-10-13

He's such a great talent, I was lucky enough to meet him almost 2 years ago. I got this CD autographed! :) He was such a nice person and performed so well on the stage. Buy this album, it's really awesome!

5 out of 5 stars The One CD in My Collection I Never Tire of Listening To.......2001-03-24

John Bayless had a vision for this album---to combine the most beautiful classical pieces along with the most romantic and engaging movie themes of all time. The arrangements and the way in which he weaves the varous pieces together, sometimes playing both themes simultaneously, are incredible. They lift you up and carry you away. The various instrumental additions (such as the guitar in track 2, drums in track 6, strings in track 5, the sound of the wind in track 4) add just the right touch---lightly sprinkled in when needed. As a professional pianist myself, I also appreciate his considerable technique and the emotion with which he infuses his music. Anyone who likes classical music and movies should own this CD. Anyone who has friends who like classical music and movies should purchase this CD for them. They will love you for it. It is my favorite CD. I never tire of listening to it.

5 out of 5 stars Gorgeous arrangements. Very dramatic and melodic........1999-11-16

Don't be scared off by the "clown-like" picture on the cover. This album, by a true piano virtuoso/arranger, blends familiar movie and light classical melodies together into unique arrangements. Every time it's been on while I have guests, someone always asks "What's that beautiful music?"

4 out of 5 stars great reverb and wonderful guitar riffs.......2004-05-12

If you play guitar or like guitar music - or, you're a Quentin Tarentino fan, you'll enjoy this CD.
Lots of lost "nuggets" from the time when Rock and Roll meant an instrumental with a killer guitar riff that hooked you and left you humming it all day.

I never surfed, I'm too young to remember the early sixties - but - this music has influenced and continues to influence not just guitar players but all of our culture.

break out your old Telecasters and crank up your reverb and jam!

3 out of 5 stars ride the wave.......2004-04-25

This is probably the easiest listening alblum of the trio of CD's. None of the songs stand out at all and it did not seem as exciting to me as the first 2 CD's of the set. It is all authentic surf music with lots of saxaphone. Althogh a bit borring I can't complain on the production and recording quality of this third CD. If you purchased the first 2 CD's of the set you may as well buy this one and complete this outstanding collection of 60's surf tunes.

5 out of 5 stars Stomp Along To More Surf Instrumentals!.......2003-11-12

Richard Delvy was the drummer for the seminal surf instrumental band the Belairs, then played drums for the Challengers, before becoming a record producer. Sundazed Records selected surf instrumentals produced by Richard Delvy to come up with volume three in their surf instrumental series. "Cheater Stomp" by the Fabulous Playboys starts this collection off with a rocking, stomping surf instrumental. Thom Starr And The Galaxies do a great version of "Mr. Moto," an early surf instrumental hit for the Belairs. "Volcanic Action" by the Challengers rocks along like a tidal wave. The surfed-up versions of the standards "Shortnin' Bread" and "(They Call The Wind) Maria" sound right at home among the more traditional surf songs. "Spanish Moon" by the Travelers closes out this collection with a slow song, signifying that the surfers are coming ashore for the night. With the large number of famous and obscure surf instrumental bands that were around in the early sixties, I hope that Sundazed Records continues to release more volumes in this series.

    Album Description

    The Lap Steel Guitar has been called ..."the most expressive and toneful instrument ever conceived". When you hear this album, you'll know why. Featuring a diverse range of musical styles such as Country, Hawaiian, Folk, Western Swing, Surf 'Noir'and New Age, performed by spectacular musicians from The United States, Canada, Hawaii and Australia. Some of the musicians are legendary, some have played with 'legends'. All are brilliant. Included are some 'classic' songs as well as some new compositions that are pure genius. There are two vocal tracks that show another dimension to the depth and versatility the instrument has to offer. This CD is guranteed to 'steel' your heart.

    4 out of 5 stars Good but a bit misleading.......2004-01-07

    First-I liked the album. The good things about it included the variety and breadth of musical styles - from Bob Brozman (poster child for all things National Guitar) to Kayton Roberts who does a nice version of Bells of St. Mary's. My only gripe is that much of the music deviates from what is known as the "lap steel guitar" (a relatively small electrified six to 10 string instrument), offering various slide guitar and resonator guitar songs as well. It would be as if they called a record "all about trombones" and only include one or two songs just with trombones and the rest with other instruments. I was not disappointed with the sound, but thought that they could have either called it something else or included more actual lap steel guitars on the record.

      5 out of 5 stars An excellent concert. Timeless overtures........2003-12-27

      It's a waste of time being harking on about this CD too much, but one of the greatest guitarists ever, Uli Jon Roth shows all the speed and heartless players how the guitar is mean't to be played. Pure bliss.

      5 out of 5 stars Michael Schenker Is On This Album !!!.......2003-05-10

      How much would you pay to hear Uli Jon & The Mad Axeman duel it out on the UFO classic "Doctor, Doctor"? Whatever your answer is, it's not enough, because much of the music on this disc is priceless. If you have the Scorpion's "Tokyo Tapes" & UFO's "Strangers In The Night" on vinyl then you know where I'm coming from. Come on....you add Jack Bruce, Phil Mogg, Pete Way & the previously mentioned Schenker and what else would you expect.
      Uli Jon's guitar switches gears from Hendrix inspired playing on songs like "Little Wing" to Clapton's riffs on "Sunshine Of Your Love" without breaking a sweat. The quality of the recording is really very, very good; all the instruments and vocals are very clear throughout. The only minor beef I have is Uli's playing on some of the UFO tunes; he assumes the role of rhythm guitarist with very little lead playing. After listening to those songs numerous times, however, my personal opinion is he just can't keep up with Michael (and not many can). But holy cr@p, when this album gets to the last few tracks, you better have at least 200 watts of power to do this recording justice.
      If your a fan of 70's metal and remember how rock music used to be played, you owe yourself this cd.

      5 out of 5 stars Classics are timeless.......2002-12-07

      When listening to this fabulous live album, i realize how sad and mediocre the present music panorama is. When classics do their best, there's no possible comparison... No present musicians make you feel like this album, in which there're superb moments, not of guitar heroes being the fastest fingers, but of truly artistic top moments. Guitars mix of Roth and Schenker in Doctor doctor and the final jam are absolutely awesome, along with Cream's, UFO's, and Hendrix's classics. One of the best live albums in the last years...

      5 out of 5 stars legends of rock kick a**.......2002-12-06
