"Rare Surf" Vol 6 - The Capitol Masters 2

The title says it all: 33 rare tracks from the original mastertapes with unreleased alternate versions like Sharon Marie's 'Thinkin' 'bout You, Baby' and Richie Allen's 'Stranger From Durango', the super-rarities 'Monster Surf Stomp' by Don Hinson, the Susan Lynne-, Hollywood Vines-, Storytellers-, and Survivors-recordings as well as the barely known vocal-version of the 'Theme From The Wild Angels' by The Visitors together with the Sun recording star Barbara Pittman doin' the lead vocals. The fabulous booklet contains many rare photos with extensive liner notes and informations about the performers and the songs by Stephen McParland. - Bear FamilyRare Surf, Vol. 6, contains almost no surf records at all, save for the lead track, Don Hinson's "Monster Surf Stomp." What it does contain, though, are a bunch of rare hot rod songs from the vault of Capitol Records and some pop stuff from the same era (early '60s). Most of the tracks are fairly generic, although if you're into the car-song genre, then this disc is a treasure trove. Highlights include a pair of barroom saxophone instrumentals ("Cruisin'," "When Johnny Comes Slidin' Home") by the Hollywood Vines and Sharon Marie's brisk run-through of the Gershwin chestnut "Summertime," which clocks in at well under two minutes in length. Also included is one of Brian Wilson's most elaborate early productions, "Guess I'm Dumb," sung by Glen Campbell. - AllMusic Review by Steve Leggett
