KHAL 98.9FM - 030 - Attack!
The Marketts - Out of Limits - Warner Bros - 1963 - Written by Michael Z. Gordon, first released as Outer Limits after the TV show with the same name. However they got sued for ripping off the four note motif from the Twilight Zone. The song got renamed and became a famous hitsong and allround classic, a perfect way to start thee show.
Les Robots - Scratch of the Astrocat - Bickerton - 2020 - Our favourite band from outer space treats our humble small world to a second brilliant full length. In my opinion it's even better than the first one, this being one fine example.
No Springs - Surfin´ The Black Lagoon - unreleased - 2020 - One or two guys doing a basic surfsound backed by a drum machine an approach that holds the stamp of approval by yours truly. From LA, California.
Fifty Foot Combo - Decompression - Drunkabilly - 2016 - Ton of records to choose from, the most famous surf and exotica band from Belgium. This song comes from one of their latest records close to 20 years after their first.

The Spotnicks - The Rocket Man - Karusell - 1962 - One of the more well known surf acts of the world. Famous for wearing spacesuits on stage. Released a lot, sold even more from Sweden formed in 1961.

The 427´s - The Spy Invasion - Stingray Sounds - 2015 - Surf inspired by the movie side of things. Very well executed as you can hear on two released full lengths, this was the opener of their debut 'Mavericks'. Canadian.
The Taikonauts - Attack - Production Impossible/ Dirty Witch - 2013 - Surf inspired by the outer space kinda things, powerful stuff from France. Two records, this was the opener of their latest to date 'Mysteriis Alienis Mundi'
The Kilaueas - Space Echoid - All Score Media - 2005 - From Berlin, Germany a household name in the surf scene with plenty of great releases to their name. This is a brilliant one from their record 'Profesor Volcanova'.
The Seatopians - Isle of Cyn - unreleased - 2020 - Looks like a pretty new surfband released their debut 'Underwater Alley' on Altered State Of Reverb in 2019. This was taken from 'Off the 50th Parallel' which still is looking for its official release I guess. Be on the look out for this band from Boise, Idaho.
The Apemen - Hard & Sole - Vulcan - 1994 - Taken from one of my favourite releases ever 'Are you being Surfed?' a 10" from our vile monkees from Eindhoven/ Rotterdam.
