    The Fantastic Baggys - The Best Of The Fantastic Baggys: Tell 'Em I'm Surfin' (1992)<br /> <br /> [img]http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/cc/7e/cd554310fca017937b273010._AA240_.L.jpg[/img]<br /> <br /> Includes:<br /> Files by track, ripped at FLAC 8 using Easy CD-DA Extractor ([url]www.poikosoft.com[/url])<br /> Tracks have full tags (including embedded thumbnail).<br /> All artwork in jpgs at 300 d.p.i. Rotated and cropped losslessly using jpegcrop. (Includes 12 page booklet.)<br /> AMG Bio.txt<br /> AMG Review.txt<br /> Notes.txt (which is simply these notes included in the torrent)<br /> <br /> Bio from All Music:<br /> <br /> Although packaged and promoted as a bona fide group, the Fantastic Baggys were actually an L.A. studio project by the duo of P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. Sloan and Barri wrote many first-rate (and second-rate) pop-rock and folk-rock tunes in the mid-1960s, but were at this point, as evidenced by the name of the group, doing surf and hot rod material. The similarity of the Fantastic Baggys material to Jan and Dean in particular should come as no surprise, since Sloan and Barri not only wrote some songs for Jan and Dean, but also did some vocals on Jan and Dean records of the era.<br /> <br /> The Fantastic Baggys did one album for Imperial in 1964, Tell 'Em I'm Surfin', as well as three singles in 1964 and 1965 (which included three non-LP songs); there were also a couple of Fantastic Baggys albums issued in South Africa. (Although there were four Fantastic Baggys pictured on the sleeve of Tell 'Em I'm Surfin', the two other guys were just friends who were not on the records.) The album, in both songwriting and performance, was a pretty close but ultimately derivative and inferior facsimile of circa 1964 Jan and Dean and (more distantly) Beach Boys records. The Fantastic Baggys stopped making records in 1965, when the surf fad faded and Sloan and Barri were more interested in writing and singing more serious and sophisticated material.<br /> <br /> Taken from: [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=11:j9fexqy5ld0e~T1[/url]<br /> <br /> This CD is listed here without a review:<br /> [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=10:acfyxqw5ldde[/url]<br /> <br /> However, this CD is actually their only album with bonus tracks. That 1964 album has this All Music Album Review:<br /> <br /> The Fantastic Baggys' sole American album release sounded like a missing Jan &amp; Dean LP. It's passable surf and hot rod music, but it would be foolish to pretend it's very original. You can hear blatant echoes of the Beach Boys throughout, whether it's passages that sound close to &quot;Surfin' U.S.A.&quot; (&quot;Surfin' Craze&quot;) or Brian Wilson ballads like &quot;The Lonely Sea,&quot; &quot;Catch a Wave,&quot; and &quot;Little Deuce Coupe.&quot; It's superficial, sure, but it's pleasant, hitting its highwater marks on &quot;Summer Means Fun&quot; (which Jan &amp; Dean recorded themselves) and the unexpected descending chord hook on the chorus of &quot;Surfin' Craze.&quot; <br /> <br /> Taken from: [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&amp;sql=10:0zfrxqy5ldje[/url]<br /> <br /> Reviews and for sale here: [url]http://www.amazon.com/Best-Fantastic-Baggys-Tell-Surfin/dp/B000008FI5[/url]<br /> <br /> Track List:<br /> <br /> First and only album:<br /> <br /> 01.
