Track by Track Review


Out Of Limits dotdotdotdot
Surf (Instrumental)

This is the hit. It sports the great guitar work of Tommy Tedesco. It's infectious little riff was heard everywhere in the hey day of surf. It's quite a rock standard. This track blends surf with Joe Saraceno's orchestral thinking, guitars, French horns, and bells. Unlike almost all of the Marketts' tracks, this features the lead guitar as the lead instrument, and approximates real surf music. It is a studio session, with Tommy Tedesco on lead, but it rips right nicely. A classic surf hit.

MOR Surf (Instrumental)

This was the B-side to "Out Of Limits." It's very much in the style of "Balboa Blue," and may be an outtake from those sessions. Nicely produced, better than MOR, less than rock 'n' roll.
