Having
never had the pleasure of witnessing a live show by the group, I was more than
happy to give this disc a spin.
What
sets Susan and the Surftones apart is their ability to bring the energy of a
live show to their recordings. Their live, raw covers of familiar tunes explode
with power. “Tramp” was my favorite track, a real classic surf-instro rocker
that captures the band's live performance energy.
Susan
told me in an interview earlier this year that they do covers because that’s
what the crowd wants to hear at a live gig. Now we all get the opportunity to
find why the crowd clamors for it.
This
CD features twenty-one tracks of fun in the sun, along with sparkling waves of
rock and roll to soothe your soul.
Susan
is a straightforward woman, and her attitude is reflected in her music. When
you listen to Susan and the Surftones, you're getting the real deal, straight
up with no chaser. Their music is authentic and honest, just like Susan
herself.
