Title: another great surf album from Del-Fi
Product review: First off, it should be noted that The Lively Ones were a much better group live than they were in the studio. That being said, there is some great rock and roll on this album. To me, the only REAL rock and roll is old rockabilly and surf music. This is yet another great album put out on the Del-fi label back in the early sixties. Bob Keane, President of Del-fi Records, recorded a lot of young bands in Southern California. His first claim to fame was discovering, recording, and promoting Richie Valens. But he specialized mostly in surf music bands (The Lively Ones, The Impacts, Dave Meyers and the Surf-Tones), and what was called Hot Rod Music (with a bunch of studio bands that featured guys like Tommy Tedesco and Glen Campbell). If you like this kind of music, then this CD is a good one.
