Scandinavia, in particular, became a hotbed of twangy guitar instrumentals, with the scene reaching new heights after The Shadows' chart-topping success with Apache in 1960.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 1961 and '62, Europe was awash with superb bands creating that unmistakable clean, echo-laden sound. This collection gathers 34 of the finest recordings from seven different countries, with a particular focus on Scandinavia and Denmark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery few of these records were released in the UK at the time. The notable exception was Sweden's The Spotnicks, who became stars in their own right, but countless other European groups were producing instrumentals every bit as exciting as their British contemporaries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've never explored the world of Eurotwang, this is the perfect place to begin. Featuring superb performances by The Jumping Jewels, Die Playboys, Les Fantômes, The Cliffters and many more, this collection is packed with melodic guitar classics and hidden gems that deserve to be heard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie Playboys - Geisterreiter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Cliffters - Django\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Spotnicks - Orange Blossom Special\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLes Fantômes - The Mexican\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Violents - Bandido\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Blazers - Old Scars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Snapshots - Tataervise Ved Bålet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Jumping Jewels - The Green Leaves Of Summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJørgen Ingmann - Apache\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLes Players - Manhunt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Hurricane Rollers - Hurricane Beat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Kingsmen - Svarta Ögon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Krewkats - Tonight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Sharks - Lise Lotte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Constrictors - Sound Of The Constrictors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Shufflers - Tabu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Blizzards - Hiawatha\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Jumping Jewels - Exodus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Starlights - Pål Sine Høner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLadi Geisler - Tomahawk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Adventures - Theme From Leningrad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Giants - Sarie Marijs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSven-ingvars Kvartett - Guitar Boogie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMelvis \u0026amp; His Gentlemen - Jinks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Treffters - Tinto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLes Sunlights - Black Reader\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eErik Kaare - Imittos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Beatnicks - Stumbeling Guitars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Flames - The Castle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Feenades - Kontiki\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Steelers - Valkoakaasiat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Quivers - Piken I Dalen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Spotnicks - The Rocket Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Jumping Jewels - Wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Various Surf Instrumental","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54208700612937,"sku":"JASCD1194","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/3427\/9753\/files\/eurotwang_cd.jpg?v=1776343776","url":"https:\/\/www.raucousrecords.com\/products\/eurotwang-cd","provider":"Raucous Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
