Track by Track Review
Surf (Instrumental)
This 1964 track is pristine, and features damped lead lines. It's melodic, catchy, and chunky. The Rumbles hailed from Council Bluffs, Iowa. Totally bitchin trad surf.
Surf (Instrumental)
The Rumbles were a Council Bluffs band founded in 1962. "Flip Side" is the obvious titled flip side of their "Wail It" single. It features a damped lead which delivers an infectious melody over a round and rolling backtrack. Right from the whammied opening chord, this fine track captures your heart. Great landlocked surf.
