"Flemgringo" [live]

This is a kinda Spanish song with a circular melody line and warm string bending. The beat is solid, as is the bass. The break thicker and more dramatic. Simple open road wind in the face traveling music.

"Zippy To The Rescue" [live]

"Zippy To The Rescue" is a little bluesy and energetic. There's a bit of the "Stand Back" verse from Steve Miller hinted at in the break.

"Unbundled" [live]

This is a spectacular piece. Long whammy chords, a slow rhythmic moody afternoon sound, and an ominous edge. "Unbundled" stands right out as the coolest track in the set, with more depth and emotional content, and a really fine structure. It fades to near silence midway before crunching back to full throated power. Magnificent!

"Our Weapons Are Useless" [live]

This Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet song is strong and thick, with the edge required, and the moodiness intact. Excellent!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Rip Off Another One" [live]

This is a faster song, with a spy edge and a rock simplicity, with big whammy and a delicate verse in the middle. Intensely powerful!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Sticky Finger Sunset" [live]

A lot like Laika and the Cosmonauts' "Fadeaway," but injected with anticipation and whammy. This is a very pretty song with a thick command and fluid delivery. Excellent!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Pale Face Hombre" [live]

Cool whammy and a bit of a desert edge, and a warm thunder. "Pale Face Hombre" is a border tune with romantic village conflict at its heart. Very friendly!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"They Don't Call Them Chihuahuas Any More" [live]

Mexican spices, a playful melody line, a military sub-rockabilly beat, and an easy full bodies bass line together in a most unusual song. Infectious, interesting, and intellectually stimulating. Way cool!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Honeybaked Ham" [live]

Ah, the imagination of instro writers when it comes to titles. There's nothing hammy or honeybaked about "Honeybaked Ham." Strong and thick, vibrato throbbed, and a little ominous. Great drums!

"Dos, Dos Equis Por Favor" [live]

Spanish breezes carry warm tropical aromas across the playa on the wings of liquid guitar. "Dos, Dos Equis Por Favor" is a pretty and very interesting song, with a bit of sadness and splashy optimism.

"Harlem By The Sea" [live]

Earl Hagen's wonderful "Harlem By The Sea" is played fast and fluidly, a lot like Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet cut it. This is a fun and adventurous performance with dynamic variations.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"He No Lickety Split" [live]

Thundering drums and rumbling bass under thick power bar guitar. This is a dominating track with a solid beat and plenty of mean action. The stinging whammy chords are quite intense!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"C'mon Do The Laika" [live]

Laika and the Cosmonauts' ultra fun "C'Mon Do The Laika" is well suited for a trio arrangement. Surf Cinema have fun with it.

"Boris The Barbarian" [live]

Laika and the Cosmonauts' grumbly "Boris The Conductor" is powerful and whammified, with a big guitar attack and rolling thunder underbelly.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Prague Rock" [live]

On the mean side, thick with whammy, and grumbly, "Prague Rock" speaks of spies and vibrato danger. On the faster side, yet with a sense of delicacy. Very nice!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Dead Pedestrians" [live]

Thick and whammified, kinda Laika-ish, and pumpin' with energy. The light whammy breaks are very cool! And the inspiration for "Dead Pedestrians" is...?
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"O.C.C.C." [live]

Laika and the Cosmonauts' "Oahu Community Correctional Center" is like an island vacation interrupted by a stay at the tropical detention center. Echoed and liquefied, "O.C.C.C." demands your time with an equatorial invitation you can't refuse.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Ricko Suave" [live]

This song of Spanish womanizing is really cool, with whammy and sunny adventure at every turn. Excellent!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Strait Up Chuck" [live]

On the fast side, "Strait Up Chuck" is riffy and circular, but is also catchy. In some ways, it's hints of the Austin sound, yet speaks of Northern latitudes.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Country-fied" [live]

A short blast of speedy punkoidal echoed circular riffology... only 30 seconds long, and sporting a slowdown fall apart ending that's pretty cool.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Quarter Pump" [live]

"Quarter Pump" is a slick number with warm whammy and an infectious inviting sound. An excellent song that hints of spies and foreign travel. A very fun song.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Memory Man" [live]

Like a rainy jazz afternooner, "Quarter Pump" is surfable and cool, and fit for open road adventure. Nice track.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Zombie Compromise" [live]

Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet's "Zombie Compromise" is dark brooding mechanical doom chordomatic thunder, intense melody line, and long fading notes. Drama and danger!
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Bullfight In April" [live]

Fast circular dark surf from the Bell®! Kinda like a fast "Pink Panther" on the rocks. Even a morphed "Wipe Out" verse to connect to the surf.
Surf Instrumental Stereo

"Sleigh Ride" [live]

Surf Cinema ended the show with a holiday foreshadow... a spunky performance of ""Bullfight In April"" Arranged similarly to Los Straitjackets, this is just too fun!
