DTS 5.1 Surround Sound!
One of the members of The Surf City Allstars is one of my oldest friends. He and I met in a musicianship class at Santa Monica College way back in the 70's. These days he makes his living playing guitar, singing and producing musical acts for the like of Universal Studios and Rhino Records...and sometimes he works with me on AIX Records projects. His relationship with Dean Torrance and the rest of these guys seemed like the perfect opportunity to create the world's first high-resolution 5.1 surround surf record. The legacy of Jan & Dean as well as the Beach Boys would be very different if surround sound had been the standard method of delivering audio in the 1960's. Imagine hearing beautiful four part harmonies coming from all directions or multiple twangy guitar parts enveloping you. This is a project full of terrific musicianship and singing. Just wait until you hear "Little Old Lady From Pasadena" in 5.1 channels!
"Dean Torrance contributed a lot to the surf music craze of the 60's. As half of the duo "Jan and Dean", he cranked out 25 charting singles during their heyday... including "Surf City" & "Little Old Lady From Pasadena". Joined by legendary guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and the best surf musicians in the business... this one is a classic!" -Mark Waldrep
