Let's Go Surfin' Now!

Was looking back through old posts from two years ago, and found that the links for all but two artists on this surf compilation are still live. End of summer is a great time for it! Enjoy this one from the archives, slightly updated....

Surf compilation. I recently put together a fun surf comp for a girlfriend in Vienna. It was made up of surf and Western style guitar tracks that have been made available by artists online. I've bought most of the CDs included on it, so I can vouch for them.
