Oh the things we can find when we're surfing Napster Premium, here's a tribute album I didn't even know existed: Jesus Christ, Surferstar. Surf bands from around the world doing the album. With the HUGE success of Good Vibrations, this could be the next revival on Broadway.
The instrumental version of the title song is spectacular... think more Dick Dale than Mike Love and you have the excellent idea.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 10:46pmHoly crap, it HAS been a year! Good for you for proving that a fella doesn't have to bump his own threads to get attention. He just has to be reallllly patient.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 11:02pmI’m surprised no one commented on this thread the first go-round...that genius album cover of JC surfing should have elicited some sort of response.

It might be a lack of sleep talkin', but I'm tempted to send in my $22.00. Kind of takes me back to the days of Jan and Dean. Why, it's almost a religious experience.
I got hooked on their version of Hosanna.

Thank you, thank you! I try!
BTW...the sound clips for this album are a hoot! Although, I think "Superstar" sounds more like "Boogie Nights" than "Surfin' Safari"..
