About this product

Surf Age Nuggets is a four-disc box set featuring the unsung heroes of the surf instrumental genre, InchSurf Age NuggetsInch traces the attitude of surf instrumental music from 1959 through it's demise in 1966. From long boards and short hair to short boards and long hair, the collection celebrates the lesser-known purveyors of the sound. All musical tracks are instrumentals and many are indeed obscure and they're supplemented by vintage station IDs and some unexpected audio treats from that era. This compilation accurately reflects the first time that music, sport and teenage lifestyle came together and confirms the attitude that surfing has always been a Inchrebel sportInch, one that continues to grow every year. Surf music was perfect for everything with it's twangy mixture of basic, pure-yet-raw '50s rock & roll, minus the teen-idol baggage. Suddenly, surfing and surf music were front and center, featured in comic books, advertising, movies and television series such as Batman, Mr. Ed and The Flintstones. The sound became pervasive and songs like Link Wray's InchJack the RipperInch, performed here by the Valiants, perfectly capture it's essence. The set contains four discs, a complete track-by-track annotation by surf experts Alan Taylor and Dave Burke from Pipeline magazine, plus pop culture surf memorabilia and vintage commercials. Album Tracks 1. The Velvetones - Doheny Run 2. The Shan-Tones - Sheba 3. The Valiants - Jack the Ripper 4. The Vaqueros - Echo 5. Johnny McCoy and the Cyclones - Scrub Bucket 6. Surf Teens - Moment of Truth 7. Surf Teens - the Ramrods 8. The Emeralds - Earthquake 9. The Runabouts - Surfer's Fright 10. Avengers VI - Slaughter on 10th Avenue 11. The Phantoms - X-L3 12. The Vistas - Moon Relay 13. The Scouts - Mr. Custer Stomp 14. The Vibrants - the Breeze and I 15. 4 of Us - Batman (Freefalling) 16. C

Follows Previous Best-Selling Collections C86 (2014), C87 (2016), C88 (2017), C89 (2018) And C90 (2020). 59 Tracks Charting The Ongoing Rise To Dominance Of The Independent Music Scene, As Once Shoestring Artists And Labels Began To Find Themselves Embraced By The Mainstream.

Having successfully crossed over from the bedsit to the mainstream throughout 1989 and 1990, independent artists quickly began to dominate the British musical landscape, bringing an authentic new energy to a stagnant, Thatcherite pop scene. 1991 saw countless indie artists score hit singles and albums as the scene continued to mutate and adapt regionally, politically and aesthetically - from Manic Street Preachers' urgent, punk-infused anthems and the outer edges of shoegaze and psychedelic songcraft offered by Chapterhouse and Levitation, through to the dancefloor friendly adventures of Flowered Up and St Etienne, the art-school informed Kingmaker and established baggy favourites The Charlatans, 1991 offered up the broadest and richest smorgasbord of accessible, street-level artists the UK's youth had known in a decade.
