The Allen Oldies Band - Ride the Wild Surf
Our Price: $13.00

Summer is fun. Summertime has more freedom than any other season. I can still taste the excitement of the final school bell on the last day of class. Rrrrrring - you're FREE. Free for (almost) three months! You can hang with your non-school pals, go to the beach, jump into the swimming pool, play sports all day long, stay up late, and goof off just about anytime you like. Most of us spend twelve formative years being conditioned to love summer just because we're not in school! School is cool, but summer is cooler!

And while we can all dream about an endless summer, summer always ends. In fact, it's the ending of summer that creates such a strong sense of urgency for HAVING FUN NOW!! This urgent call to HAVE FUN NOW drew me to the OLDIES and lives in all of the tunes on this CD. ?Down on the Beach is the ultimate beach party. Ride The Wild Surf puts you on the surfboard on waves some 30 feet high. California Sun radiates chaos and dancing. Roy Head's Summertime Love states simply that summertime is the right time and that lovin', not love in, is the way to really treat summer right. 'Summer in The City', rightly or wrongly, points to night time as the best time to have fun. 'Yummy Yummy Yummy' brings out the peaches and cream, Peanut Butter is so hard to chew, and Sweets for My Sweet puckers with sweetness. With a belly full of food songs it's best to jump right into the deep end, along with our incomparable horn section, for C'mon and Swim. Landis makes sure you stay in the water on Miserlou. Crazy Elephant's Gimme Gimme Good Lovin' gives us all a great reason to head back to the dance floor. 'Then Let's Twist Again' before we really let our bodies bounce with a Little Bit O' Soul and get loose with the Hanky Panky. Next up we hit the dock and issue an invitation to Come on Down To My Boat. Insanity prevails as we attempt to out-trash The Trashmen on Surfin' Bird. The wild surf returns us to the beach as we finish this party with the Isley Brothers-penned Nobody But Me.
Enjoy your summer and your OLDIES!
