Product Details

Regional surf scenes outside of Southern California rarely get their due, but the Pacific Northwest had its own wave of instrumental guitar bands in the mid-1960s that burned bright and fast before the British Invasion reshaped everything. Originally released in 1968, well past surf music's commercial peak, "Ten Tons Of Wet" is a genuine artifact of that late-period underground, the kind of regional oddity that serious collectors spend decades hunting down.


The Cornells, a mid-1960s Pacific Northwest surf band originally called the Tornados, appear here as The Surf Riders with an album titled "Ten Tons Of Wet," one of a long line of interesting obscure releases to come from the stable of the mysterious, Los Angeles-based musician/producer/entrepreneur known as Johnny Kitchen. Originally released in 1968, this ultra-rare album has been remastered and repressed on limited edition color vinyl for the discriminating surf music enthusiast.
