Here's a vintage compilation album titled oh-so lamely: Golden Instrumentals.
The title may be a yawner, but check out the track list! Awesome picks from the album producer, Snuff Garrett.
Sleepwalk - Santo and Johnny
Wipe Out - The Surfaris
Pipeline - The Chantays
Happy Organ - Dave "Baby" Cortez
Tequila - The Champs
Memphis - Lonnie Mack
Topsy - Part II - Cozy Cole
Hot Pastrami - The Dartells
Bongo Rock - Preston Epps
Torquay - The Fireballs
Red River Rock - Johnny And The Hurricanes
Hot Pastrami, I think, is the only tune on this LP that isn't available by purchase/download.
Hot Pastrami is hardly an instrumental with that silly vocal additive.
ReplyDeleteTopsy Part II by Cozy Cole is not the same recording as the one typically found today. The version on the original pressing of this album is by far the best recording, and you never, ever hear it anywhere else.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to list "Teen Beat" by Sandy Nelson...
