1	The Birth of Surf (2007) more music like this by Various Artists Although it's called The Birth of Surf, this 26-track compilation could actually be titled The Best of Surf . It includes all three of the major instrumental surf hits of the early '60s (there really were only three!) -- the Surfaris' "Wipe Out," the Chantays' "Pipeline," and the Pyramids' "Penetration" -- as well as a big wave of tracks that ... see all copies from $17.09! new only from $17.09!
2	Jack the Ripper (1963) more music like this by Link Wray see all copies from $5.00! new only from $14.34!
3	Early Recordings (1979) more music like this by Link Wray Drawn from the one LP and the dozen or so singles Link Wray recorded for Swan Records between 1963 and 1966, Early Recordings, first released in this configuration by Chiswick Records in 1978, remains the best single-disc introduction to this powerful guitar player, even though, at 32 minutes in length, it falls on the brief side. No matter. It ... see all copies from $12.67! new only from $12.67!
4	Lost Legends of Surf Guitar, Vol. 2 (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Like its predecessor in the Lost Legends of Surf Guitar series, this serves up an assortment of instrumental surf rarities from the early '60s, all of the 20 tracks on this compilation recorded between 1962 and 1964. It's a little less impressive than the first volume, not for reasons that are too obvious, but just due to a general lower level of ... see all copies from $14.74! new only from $14.74!
5	King of the Wild Guitar (2007) more music like this by Link Wray While this 25-track compilation does stretch over 40 years of Link Wray's career, and it does include some of his best and most famous recordings, it's not exactly a best-of. Instead, it combines 11 tracks cut between the late '50s and mid-'60s with 14 that came out on relatively obscure Ace Records albums between 1989 and 2000. Compilations that ... see all copies from $14.74! new only from $14.74!
6	Dancehall Stringbusters!: Crunchy Guitar Instros from the '60s (2004) more music like this by Various Artists The title of this 20-track compilation is pretty self-explanatory. Instrumental rock with growling, distorted guitars is the main order of the day here, usually based around R&B-derived progressions, sometimes with smoky sax as embellishment. At its best that can be a great combination, but it's also prone to formulaic songs that don't have much ... see all copies from $16.19! new only from $16.19!
7	Mr. Guitar (1995) more music like this by Link Wray While Link cut some great records in the late '50s and early '60s, he really reached his peak during his stay with the Swan label in the early and mid-'60s. This double-CD, 63-song set documents this period with as much thoroughness as anyone is likely to attempt, including great singles like "Jack The Ripper," "Mr. Guitar," "Ace Of Spades," and ... see all copies from $34.24!
8	The Genius of Billy Childish: With Thee Milkshakes & Thee Headcoats (2005) more music like this by Billy Childish The Genius of Billy Childish: With Thee Milkshakes & Thee Headcoats is the audio version of the DVD Cherry Red issued in 2004 called Thee Headcoats and Thee Milkshakes: The Bands of Billy Childish. It collects two live performances, one 12-song set by Thee Milkshakes in 1984 and one 19-song set by Thee Headcoats in 1993. As befits any Childish ... see all copies from $16.44! new only from $16.44!
