Notes
Oh yeah! We've been waiting for a comp like this for a long, long time (and we're not the only ones!).
Chairman Of The Board is a cool collection of vintage tracks from the soundtracks of iconic 60s and 70s cult surf movies.
Underground film makers wanted original music, a harder sound to reflect the new wilder cinematic expression now possible on the face of a wave. The music they chose to enhance this visual experimentation was the mellower stoner blues and psychedelic rock, which perfectly captured the cerebral highs of living the alternative dream. The music featured on this compilation, some of which has never been released, originates from six of these classic surf films - 'Innermost Limits of Pure Fun' (1968), 'Children of the Sun' (1968), Crystal Voyager (1975), 'Morning of the Earth' (1971), 'Evolution' (1968) and 'Super Session' (1975).
These surf films were often low budget, badly edited and overly long masterpieces that beautifully reflected the genuine aspirations of an era where travel, tropical surf and a big fatty at sunset combined with the energy, moods and dreams that echoed through the music. These accompanying soundtracks had a limited release or just existed on the film.
Sixties beats, stoner rock, a touch of folk and psychedelia breathed life into screen sized footage of giant tube rides and alternative views of how to live barefoot in your own oceanic postcard of Woodstock.
