    These Huntington Beach boys return with a groovin' mix of Southern Blues and surf music - kind of a slow cross between the two. Cool, laid-back music with thoughtful, honest lyrics. "Surf City Revisited" is personally very sad for me, as well as the artists, because it talks about Huntington Beach's surf town fixtures (surf shops and the pier) being torn down and turned into condos & a mall. Fans of slow-moving acoustic music with an accent on words (like Mark Heard) will enjoy this. To order, send $7 to: crs records, 2619A England, Huntington Beach CA 92648.
