Little Axe
Hard Grind
2002
Little Axe's debut album, The Wolf That House Built, issued in 1994, created
mold for Moby's Play album — and he knows it. With its blend of deep, slow
beats, loops, sampled voices of blues singers, heavy dub reggae effects, kick
drums, and wailing guitar, it was the roots music precedent to the bald one's
record by half a decade. Eight years later, Little Axe returns with a new set t
no doubt be compared to Play when in reality it is in a league of its own. The
sophomore effort issued by legendary reggae producer and mixmaster
Sherwood, guitarist Skip McDonald, bassist Doug Wimbish, and drummer
LeBlanc is a dreamy, hazy cipher of an album that settles slowly and lazily
listener, displacing his or her sense of time and space in the mix and
or her approach to listening to blues and rhythm inside out. It features the v
bluesmen telling stories and snippets of singers wafting ghostily out of the et

song is ever-present and hypnotic; the continuity and consistency in the mixes from
one track to the next are without peer. Hard Grind is the album that should have
been the soundtrack for writhing late-night sexual trysts, dark morning soul-

oblivion.

The Gladiators
Back To Roots
2000
The Gladiators' final album for the Front Line label, Sweet So Til, disappointed some
roots fans who denigrated it as being too "lightweight." In hindsight, the album was
seen as a classic; within the group experimented with a country style and exquisitely
blended rockers rhythms with Ernest Ranglin's phenomenal, bluesy lead guitar and
Jimmy Beckford's wailing harmonica.In any event, the trio decided to give the people
what they apparently wanted, and Back to Roots perfectly sums up this set's sound.
No longer dependent on guesting musicians, the group was now a self-contained unit
with a lineup including drummer Stanley "Barnabas" Bryan, lead guitarist Clinton
Rufus, and keyboardist Audley Taylor, and fleshed out by percussionist Zoot "Skully"
Simms and the brass of Bobby Ellis, Felix "Deadly Headly" Bennett, and Dave
Madden. Self-produced and recorded at Channel One studios, the Gladiators create a
deep roots sound from the minor-key melodies, with the swollen atmospheres
conjured up by the obligatory militant beats, throbbing basslines, and sharp riffs that
swell around the brass and keyboards. Consequentially, few of the songs boast the
immediate infectious appeal of much their earlier work, bar the anthemic "The
Warriors," but this is a purely cultural set, and the band was deliberately trying to
shake their more populist appeal. Songs like "Marcus Garvey Time," "God Bless,"
"Prayer to Jah," and "Rich Man Poor Man" are the standouts, the latter one of several
cuts on which Clinton Fearon takes lead vocals. Falling off a major label may have
hurt the group's profile abroad, but this album helped put to bed any doubts on the
group's standing back home. This CD reissue appends four excellent live cuts,
including two Wailers/Bob Marley covers, all presumedly recorded in the early '80s;
the otherwise informative sleeve notes provides no information about them. Another
in the stream of classic albums the group unleashed during the roots age.

The 'Verb are five well dressed gentlemen who look both ways before crossing a

the reverb drenched surf and beach music of the early 60's with a punk edge and a
British beat.

Tito and Tarantula stretch out beyond the dark blues idiom they explored to the
depths on Tarantism, though tracks like "Bleeding Roses" are no less dark or moody.
"Love in My Blood" is obviously a Gun Club homage from the opening, unwieldy
chords to the lyric "For the love of Ivy..."; "My German Fraulein" doesn't even try to
hide its resemblance to Link Wray. Tito is a charmer with his recorder; even
complete monstrosities, like the meandering and nonsensical title song (a parable
incorporating Biblical and sci-fi imagery) end up sounding likable in Larriva's hands.

Last weeks Lost Legends Of Surf Guitar Vol 2 showcased one of Jerry's turns so
check it out.
There are also two other Jerry Cole & His Spacemen albums in the archives, Power
Surf, The Best of Jerry Cole & His Spacemen and Outer Limits. Dig deep for them if
you missed them the first time around.
Jerry Cole, a guitarist and songwriter who released several surf music albums in the
1960s and recorded with prominent bands such as the Beach Boys and the Byrds,
died of a heart attack May 28 at his Corona home, said his wife, Gale. He was
68.With his own group, the Spacemen, Cole released four albums of "space-age surf
music" in just over two years, beginning with "Outer Limits" in 1963, according to
the Allmusic Internet database.
Jerry ColeCole was a member of producer Phil Spector's Wrecking Crew studio
collective, a group of musicians who played on many pop hits in the 1960s. Cole can
be heard on the Beach Boys' 1966 album "Pet Sounds," the Byrds' "Mr. Tambourine
Man" single and the band Them's self-titled 1965 album.
Born Jerald Edward Kolbrak on Sept. 23, 1939, in Green Bay, Wis., Cole moved to
Los Angeles and joined the Champs in 1959 after the instrumental quintet had
recorded the chart-topping "Tequila." Fellow band members included Glen Campbell
as well as Jimmy Seals and Dash Crofts, who became successful as the duo Seals
and Crofts in the 1970s.On television, Cole led the pit bands for the mid-1960s rock-
'n'-roll-oriented shows "Shindig" and "Hullabaloo." He also cut a number of

In 2004, Cole was inducted into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.In addition to Gale,
whom he married in 1984, Cole is survived by daughters Monique and Katrina and a
son, Cane.
A celebration of his life will be held at 1 p.m. June 28 at Corona Christian Center,
1901 W. Ontario Ave., Corona.

Bradipios IV
Surf Session
2005
The band was born in the mid 90's, although Ghigo and Enrico in the mid- 80's were
already playing in a 60's oriented combo, The Neurotics, that eventually split up.
Then Enrico and Ghigo started playing with two new guitarists, Francesco and Max
(Ghigo’s brother), and having a great fun together they decided to give life to THE
BRADIPOS IV. From 1990 to 1995 the band played at friends` parties, and of course
is still playing a lot at the drummer's old pad. We finally recorded our first demotape
"Sloth's Surfin' Party" and thanks to it we had many occasions to play in contests
(Bologna, Bari, Cosenza, Ascoli). After that we recorded "Beach Fool", our first 7", for
Killyourself Punkarrecords from Parma. You can also hear us in Go Surf!!, a split 7"
with Scriteriati, another instrumental band from Rome; this record was released by
Teen Sound Records. In February ’99 we recorded our first CD released by
Omomusic, label based in Rome. It was an hard work, specially if you consider the
fact that it was the first time we had to deal with a recording studio. The main
trouble was to find the right sound: we wanted to sound like the bands on Del-Fi
recordings. However, the sound technician was very open-minded and cared a lot
about our needs (although he is an Heavy Metal expert!!). The title of the record is
"Instro-Mania", it includes only instrumental tracks; obviously the predominant line is
surf, but there are also rock’n’roll and garage tracks and some 60’s italian cocktails
tunes (in our intensions!); the record is composed by 14 tracks including two cover,
Work Song (Challengers` version) and Carmela (a neapolitan classic from Sergio
Bruni), and was released in the first days of April by the above mentioned Omom
Music. If you want to know which tracks we reckon the best, in our opinion they are
definitely Work Song, Carmela, Dirty-Phonic and Forbidden Island; however, we
think that the listener’s judgement is better than ours. Surely, using the Farfisa
Compact in almost all tracks added a special sound. In the last year we played at
some other contests like the Beat Festival in Piacenza and the Bus-One 60’s Party in
Pavia; moreover we opened for The Boss Martians and Chocolate Watchband in
Rome and for Link Protrudi in Naples. We have been listening to Surf, Garage and
Italian Beat and in general to all the sixties oriented music since around a decade.
Although we have precise musical tastes, we are curious and not closed to other
musical genres (apart from Heavy Metal, of course!!!). Our brains are boiling for the

Del-Fi and Hot Rod sound, Strummin' Mental and Diggin' Out, even for Jungle
Exotica, Las Vegas Grind and Link Wray,but at the same time we like a lot of
"modern" surf bands like Man Or Astro - Man ?, Phantom Surfers, Satan's Pilgrims,
Finks and also European and Italian bands like Flashback V,Doctor
Explosion,Petrifieds, Gravestones, Heads & the Hares, Others, Tijuana Tex & the
Cowbones, Vice Barons, and many more. Recently, some of our tracks were released
on:"That's New Pussycat- Surf Tribute To Burt Bacharach!", a compilation by Om
Omusic; "Themes For Bathing Beauties And Woodies",a compilation by Teen Sound
Records; and finally a Surf Tribute To Booker T & the MG's, on Wildebeest Records.
In March 2001 the band record the soundtrack to the short indie movie "Blue
Panthers" directed by Giancarlo Mazzaro now being distributed in France. In April
2001 the Bradipos IV are contacted by dutch tour promoter Arnold Vinkeles and set
off on their first foreign tour. The main cities of the tour are: Arnhem, Dessau,
Leipzig, Nürnberg, Dresden, Kassel and others. In July of the same year the group
are the opening act in the first edition of the "Beat Fever Festival" in Verona
organized by "The Fog Surfers" with bands like Lighting Beat Man and the Miracle
Workers. At the beginning of November they play themselves in some scenes of "L
'Imbalsamatore"" by emerging director Matteo Garrone. The movie, produced by
Fandango Films, includes musical tracks from the official soundtrack. Due out are
another two tracks on the compilations "American Graffiti. A surf tribute" by OmOm
Records and "For A Few Guitars More - A tribute to Morricone's Spaghetti Western
Themes" for the american label of Larry White. This comp includes tracks by the best
bands of the international surf scene like: Man or Astroman, Davie Allan, Bambi
Molesters, Penetrators ,Cadillac Hitmen, 50 Foot Combo, Hellbenders, Los
Relampagos, Irreversible Slacks, Langhorns, MiGs, Pollo del Mar and others. On
December 2004 will be out two new records:a tribute to Richie Allen, a new
compilation from Golly Gee Records with bands like The Hypnotic IV, The Waistcoats,
John Blair, The Eliminators, The Aqua Velvets, The Chocolate Watchband and
more..., in this comp the band plays the song "Room 304"; On February 2005 the
band present "Surf Session", the new full lenght album from the Teen Sound
Records.

This collection of 20 surf instrumentals, all recorded in 1963 and 1964, is very much
what you might expect of an anthology of lesser-known surf music on a quality
reissue label such as Sundazed. That is, it's good, though not nearly as good as the
very best '60s instrumental surf music anthologies, and can be confidently
recommended to surf collectors. That's not only because it's rare (mostly originally
done for very small labels) and pretty good, but also because even the biggest surf
collectors won't have all of this, as eight of the tracks were previously unissued.

There aren't many names among the artists that will strike chords of recognition,
though the Pyramids of "Penetration" fame are here (with their Gary Usher-arranged
1963 cuts "Pressure" and "Contact"); Jim Messina was part of the Jesters, whose
previously unissued recording of "The Jester" was produced and co-written by the
then-teenaged prodigy; and the Original Surfaris (not to be confused with the
Surfaris of "Wipe Out" fame), the Centurions, and Dave Myers all have their devotees
among surf fanatics. There aren't many truly killer cuts, though the finest
trademarks of surf music -- the monstrously reverbed guitar, the Latin and Middle
Eastern-inflected melodies, the sleek tempos -- are in force more or less throughout.
But there are some numbers that would stand comfortably on any cream-of-the-'60s
surf collection, like the Chandelles' "El Gato" (produced in New Mexico by ex-Buddy
Holly producer Norman Petty) and Dave Myers' "Gear," with the almost military
crunch of its rhythms. Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide

***Surf Coasters will be in California this September. I have my bar stool already
picked out for The Purple Orchid show.
The Surf Coasters were organized in 1994, by Shigeo Naka from Tokyo, Japan.
Shigeo Naka is a guitar prodigy with amazing fretboard skills. His early love is for
American surf music, and many Surf Coasters CDs feature reworkings of famed surf
songs from the 60s. But the Surf Coasters are a modern band with modern

production and crunchy guitar sound. Shigeo Naka writes originals in styles from
quiet accoustic to throbbing garage rockers, from trad style surf to ripping fretboard
excursions.The Surf Coasters are now the #1 instrumental band in Japan. They have
released more than 20 CDs for the Columbia, BMG, and Victor labels. And with many
appearances on film soundtracks (“69”) and video games (“Run About”). They have
worked with UK producer Adrian Sherwood, the Southern All Stars (one of the most
famous bands in Japan!), and played with Eleki legends Yuzo Kayama and Keigo
Iwase.In 1995, famed surfing music legend Dick Dale, known as the “King of the Surf
Guitar”, came to Japan and played many shows with The Surf Coasters. He
proclaimed Shigeo Naka to be “The Prince of the Surf Guitar”.The Surf Coasters tour
consistently in Japan and Shigeo Naka is known for his athletic stage presence. In a
small hall or large stadium the Surf Coasters givs everything they have for the
performance.

Review
by Hal Horowitz
Combining aspects of Devo, Dick Dale, and los Straitjackets, this masked,
predominantly instrumental quartet charges through 15 nitro-burning punkabilly surf
rockers in less than 25 minutes. With the reverb and volume cranked to maximum,
the band revs up and churns out tunes that barely give you time to inhale before the
next one comes barging in. Truthfully though, at a whopping 11 seconds and 46
seconds, respectively, it's a stretch to call pieces such as "Destruct" and "Mars Needs
Women" songs. They are more like hyperactive power riffs in search of a larger
context that the band decided wasn't worth pursuing. Occasional spoken word
introductions along with song titles such as "Return of the Attack of the Curse of the
Son of the Astrosquid Part XIV Chapter Six" (all 55 seconds of it) and theramin bring
out the trashy, '50s/'60s sci-fi aesthetic, as do the inside graphics. But the meaty
guitars and frantic rhythms combine the best of '70s punk with the reverb-drenched
guitar of acts such as the Mermen, the Aqua Velvets, and the primal power of Link
Wray. Quentin Tarantino would probably approve. When things finally relax for a
comparatively languid "Fear the Future," the group's spaghetti Western roots get a
chance to come up for air. Those moments are few and far between, though, on this
frenetic disc that whips you around like a roller coaster run amuck. The album's
abbreviated length only adds to the intensity. Take a deep breath, strap in, hang on,
and enjoy the ride.
