Description:

[ERA : 60s / Rock ] Legendary independent soundtrack recording to the classic 1969 OZ surf movie directed by George Greenough. The soundtrack was written, performed & produced by American surfer group, Farm. Farm's lead guitarist Denny Aaberg was a keen surfer and later became a well-known surf writer; the movie "Big Wednesday" (1978) is based on his novel about his surfing youth. Other members of Farm include bassist Phill Pritchard, guitarist Ernie Knapp, both of whom played with the Beach Boys in the 1980s-90s, and the Dragon brothers Doug and Dennis (organ and drums respectively on this soundtrack). Dennis also has a Beach Boys link, having done sound work for them. He became a busy surf soundtrack producer in 1970s, did some early work with Van Halen, and was a member of the Surf Punks. An additional musician on this soundtrack is Daryl Dragon (Captain in Captain & Tennille), who also collaborated with Dennis Wilson. Daryl & Dennis Dragon produced about 30 albums in their Malibu studio. This album is the only release from this historical surfer quintet. The fine soundtrack performances by Farm helped to promote the street-wise feeling of the film. No Annette, no Jan & Dean, no beach party anymore. The soundtrack of jazz, blues & psychedelia birthed a new style of surf soundtrack. However, the original soundtrack album was released privately (the original LP has no label credit or address), with only 1000 copies pressed. The album was illegally issued (with a different cover) in the early 1970s in Australia. Though Greenough is well-known for his superb underwater camera work on "Big Wednesday" and his later surf movie classic "Crystal Voyager", "The Innermost Limits of Pure Fun" is the origin of his work. * Liner notes written by Dennis Dragon & Denny Aaberg. *Bonus : an Aalberg interview by author & historian Stephen McParland (featured as a bonus Quicktime movie).* Many scarce photos. * JAPANESE pressing. / Crystal Shingles * Animal * Wind N Sea * Crumple Car * Tobie's Oats * San Ho Zay * Snake Charmer * The Eater * The Cruzer * Ground Shuffle * Innerspace * Outeriff * Coming of the dawn
