Classified: Surf Rock Mix

Hello darlings. Today we are very pleased to give you a 29 song mix of the coolest surf rock from the early 1960s we could find. Clocking in at just over an hour, we’ve got some gems from Dick Dale, a great Beach Boys instrumental, some really moody cuts, and one lone track with vocals - The Trashmen’s King of the Surf - to be honest, it’s probably more on the side of hot rod rock than surf rock , but it just wouldn’t feel right to leave it out. There may even be a track or two from the 90s surf rock revival - can you tell?

You may have ignored the surf rock posts this week because, well, they’re surf rock. But we’re gonna have to insist that you give this a solid listen, preferably at the beach or at the pool, or blaring from your speakers as you hang out the window of your woodie. This music is just perfect for being in the sun. And if you need more sun-soaked vibes when it’s over, queue up our episode on Rocksteady, kick back, and forget all your troubles.

Surf’s up.
