Dale, Dick & Deltones

Surfer's Choice (clear)

Surfers Choice is a true landmark of surf rock, being the album that established the genre more than any other release. First issued in 1962 and mostly recorded at the Rendezvous Ballroom in Balboa Beach, midway between Los Angeles and San Diego, it has rollicking surf anthems like Surf Beat, Shake N Stomp, Surfing Drums and Take It Off, as well as Dales adaptations of Night Owl, Fanny Mae and a strangely orchestrated take of Sloop John B. With a soaring guitar thats drenched in reverb at centre stage and Dales gritty vocals varying the action, this is the enduring start of surf rock and a blistering start at that!
