The Missing Chord CD

The Missing Chord CD

The Missing Chord is a 20-track blast of instrumental Surf and Rock 'n' Roll, originally released in 1996. Packed with rip-roaring sounds from Huevos Rancheros, Los Mel-Tones, The Revtunes, Counterpoint, Surfin' Lungs, The Sabrejets, Surfzone and plenty more, this is a compilation built for fans of twangin' guitars, hot rods and serious instrumental action.

The musical territory stretches from the surf-soaked attack of Deadman's Curve, The Surf Creatures and The Interceptors to the wild instrumental sounds of The Sandblasters, Shotgun, Empress Of Fur and Wild Bob Burgos. With titles including Girl From N.A.N.A.I.M.O., Surfin' To The Max, Rat Motor, Chickie Run, Toxic Beach and Body Bag, the tracklist tells you pretty much everything you need to know about the ride you're about to take.

A superb snapshot of the mid-'90s Surf revival, bringing together a seriously varied collection of bands and sounds. If you like your guitars twangy, your drums pounding and your Surf suitably dangerous, The Missing Chord delivers the goods.
