Description
RARE FACTORY SEALED ORIGINAL 1964 MONO COPY OF THE CATALINAS "FUN FUN FUN" ON R.I.C. M1006. Super cool 60's surf record featuring Roger McGuinn pre-Byrds and Bruce Johnston before he joined The Beach Boys. This record is full of killer session musicians from L.A. and The Wrecking Crew, etc. Billy Strange's guitar sounds excellent! Hal Blaine on drums as well. This particular copy is factory sealed and has never been opened but the music sounds great and this is a guaranteed high quality copy. Rare find!
From Sundazed.com: The first wave of the surf music explosion spawned countless short-lived bands and one-shot studio projects. Many of those projects were quickly forgotten, but a handful have continued to inspire hushed reverence among surf aficionados. The latter category includes the Catalinas' lone album, originally released in 1964 and out of print for more than four decades.
An all-star studio supergroup featuring legendary producer Terry Melcher, future Beach Boy Bruce Johnston and fabled Wrecking Crew members Hal Blaine, Jerry Cole, Steve Douglas, Leon Russell, Billy Strange and Tommy Tedesco, the Catalinas lived up to their impressive pedigree. In addition to rarely-heard tunes penned by Bobby Darin and a pre-Byrds Roger McGuinn, the album features potent versions of such surf and hot rod classics as "Surfin' U.S.A.," "Wipe Out," "Banzai Washout," "I Get Around" and "Summer Means Fun."
Record: Mint. Never opened, never played.
Cover: NM. Looks new. Minor signs of storage. Very well preserved
