Glaciers - From Sea To Ski LP - NM! Surf Hot Rod Beautiful.
Really nice copy!
Vinyl is NM (played once)
For those of you wondering, ski music is essentially surf music with organs and the occasional sleighbell. There were a few attempts at translating the surfing craze into a ski phenomenon. From the Avalanches’ Ski Surfin’ album to Bruce Johnston’s “Here We Go (Surfer Boys’ Going Skiing”) single to AIP’s Ski Party and Wild Wild Winter films, the wintery exercise never quite yielded the lasting results of its summertime counterpart. Nevertheless, there’s something uniquely magical about this forgotten offshoot from the regular surf genre.
The Glaciers' sole album, From Sea to Ski sits quietly on the outskirts of the surf and hot rod universe, collecting snowfall from a general lack of interest in the sounds therein. With a group of highly talented musicians, such as Hal Blaine, Ray Pohlman, and Glenn Campbell, it seems shocking that such a project would garner so little praise.
From Sea to Ski album is a treat! While many songs are in the same key (E major), there’s just enough creativity here to make it worthwhile tracking this little snow-laden gem down.
