1. Little Deuce Coupe by The Beach Boys

Early 1960's California - hot rods, sunshine, surfing and plenty of girls!
'Little Deuce Coupe' was the B-side to 'Surfer Girl' which entered the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart on 3rd August 1963 reaching Number 7

2. Wipeout by The Surfaris

A wipeout is a spectacular fall from your surfboard; The Surfaris certainly stayed afloat riding high in the chart!
'Wipeout' entered the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart in 1963 reaching Number 2

3. Pipeline by The Chantays

The classic Hawaiian wave - the one every surfer wants to ride...
'Pipeline' entered the chart on 18th April 1963 reaching Number 16


Happy listening!
