Title: Santa's gone surfin'.
Review: The idea was a good one: surf music versions of Christmas songs. But the excecution leaves a lot to be desired. The problem is that, while the album has the trappings of surf music, it doesn't feel like "real" surf music. Probably because "The Wave Benders" aren't a real surf group. The album was recorded by a bunch of studio musicians in Amsterdam, of all places. So, what we have here is an album of generic "surf music" versions of Christmas songs.
Is the review positive or negative?
