• Newly compiled by Pipeline Magazine, Ace Records' CD "The Birth Of Surf" traces the evolution of instrumental surf music from its rock'n'roll roots through to the minor classics and big surf hits of its peak year in 1963.
• It includes rockin' contributions from influential guitar stars Duane Eddy, Link Wray, the Ventures and the Fireballs, early surf from Californian group the Tornadoes, the pivotal and defining blast of Dick Dale's 'Miserlou', the big surf hits 'Pipeline', 'Wipe Out', 'Baja' and 'Penetration', and the cream of the self-released recordings from the myriad of young surf groups that sprung up in their wake.
• "The Birth Of Surf" is the strongest single CD compilation of instrumental surf music ever assembled. Every track is a killer, each one capable of heading up an album of its own. As a result it's an exciting listen as well as an essential purchase for the casual buyer and collector alike.
• As if its title strength alone wasn't enough, "The Birth Of Surf" also has first-time-on-CD rarities such as 'Earthquake' by Aki Aleong & The Nobles and 'Latin Soul' from the Original Surfaris - neither of which have been released in any form since 1963. Another notable inclusion is the hit single version of the Surfaris' 'Wipe Out'. Rather surprisingly this has become sought-after recently because most compilations have used an earlier, unedited version of the track.
