From the opening drum roll, Surf Blaster gets your feet tapping as you visualize a top surfer playing with an excellent two minute ride.
|
|
|
Too late to turn back now - go over the edge with the V-People!
|
|
|
The name of our hometown community in Northeast L.A.- makes a nice title for this semi-ballad.

|
The Vara-Tones have landed! Somewhere in the set list of every 60`s garage band worth their salt there had to be 1) an invaders-from-outer-space song and 2) a chicken song (see track 12).
|
|
|
Reminiscent of that warm peaceful beach with the moon shimmering over the bay as
you pop open another Corona.
|
|
|
Like the sign says - the jetty IS subject to high surf!

|
Takes us back to one of surfdom`s favorite 60`s haunts, The Rendezvous Ballroom, for a classic surf style tune, with a tip of the hat to the Surfaris, The Chantays, and The Rhythm Rockers.
|
|
|
This tune was our first original, written in 1961 and updated for the album. The beat might be called "groove-surf".
|
|
|
A spontaneous jam at our 1997 reunion resulted in this tune.
|
|
|
The Vara-Tones single, re-worked for guitar.
|
|
|
Inspired by a perfect day at the beach, then listening to live surf at the Rendezvous!
|
|
|
Yep, that`s right! It`s our chicken song!
|
|
|
This tune features our drummer Rich, who started out on boxes, hence the title!
|
|
|
With a growling sax lead, a thundering bass line, and all the unrestrained exuberance of a bunch of guys having a real good time.
