They made three albums for Capitol, circa 1963-64. They are surf/hot rod/Rat Fink/Ed "Big Daddy" Roth knockoff albums. The mastermind is Beach Boys alum Gary Usher. Musicians are the Wrecking Crew, including Glen Campbell, Teenage Steve Douglas, Carol Kaye, Billy Strange, and Frankie Capp. Posting in the film music forum, as this music is more cinematic than 99% of what routinely gets discussed around here. For Halloween - "Hearse with a Curse:"    Posted:   Oct 25, 2020 - 3:14 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Surfer Ghoul:    Posted:   Oct 26, 2020 - 9:53 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Curiously, two of the three Mr. Gasser & the Weirdos albums are readily available on CD, but "Hot Rod Hootenany" is harder to find.    Posted:   Oct 26, 2020 - 12:42 PM     By:   shadowman   (Member) Love that surf and drag (as in drag racing, also referred to as hot rod) music. My favorite genre of rock and roll oldies from the early and mid 1960's.    Posted:   Oct 26, 2020 - 1:08 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Love that surf and drag (as in drag racing, also referred to as hot rod) music. My favorite genre of rock and roll oldies from the early and mid 1960's. Love this stuff! I guess this thread as as good as any to discuss the Silly Surfers, another Gary Usher project with fellow Beach Boys alum Roger Christian! The two obvious Halloween tracks are "Monster Surfer Hangin' Six" and "Hearse on a Surfari!"    Posted:   Oct 26, 2020 - 5:03 PM     By:   shadowman   (Member) Love that surf and drag (as in drag racing, also referred to as hot rod) music.

I guess this thread as as good as any to discuss the Silly Surfers, another Gary Usher project with fellow Beach Boys alum Roger Christian! The two obvious Halloween tracks are "Monster Surfer Hangin' Six" and "Hearse on a Surfari!" These songs were available on 2 separate albums, one for the Silly Surfers and another for The Weird-Ohs. There was a single album which featured 6 songs each from the Silly Surfers and The Weird-Ohs. There are lots (and I mean LOTS) of great surf/hot rod groups from the early through mid 1960's. Among my favorites are The Hondells. The great Dennis McCarthy (yes, that Dennis McCarthy from Star Trek Deep Space Nine etc.) was a member of the Hondells at one time. You can see a picture of him if you go to Ebay and type in the search field The Hondells volume 3 Aliases and Alternatives. He is the person shown in the upper left hand portion of the photo.    Posted:   Oct 26, 2020 - 5:55 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) These songs were available on 2 separate albums, one for the Silly Surfers and another for The Weird-Ohs.

Not sure, but I think Gary Usher was; don't know about Roger Christian.     General Discussion: Mr. Gasser & the Weirdos    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
