Big Surf (Ace Records compilation)


Rating: 5/5

Review:
A cracking compilation

This is an absolutely cracking compilation of surf instrumentals from Ace Records. The five groups here may be slightly less well known than people like The Ventures or Dick Dale, but they are really good – plenty of atmospheric echoey guitar, prominent drums and so on, and some terrific tunes.

Some of these tracks were familiar to me but many weren’t, and I’m delighted to have them all. The sound quality is excellent as you’d expect from Ace and it’s a gem of a collection all round. Very warmly recommended.
