The Challengers / Lloyd Thaxton Goes Surfing With ... - Vault Records ST-101 (Stereo)(US)(1963) ...This auction is for an original Issue Stereo Record on U.S. (black) vinyl. It features the original full titled cover version).
One of the most popular of the early Southern Californian surf bands, The Challengers were formed by drummer Richard Delvy after he left The Bel-Airs, who had recorded one of the very first surf singles, "Mr. Moto." The Challengers' debut LP, Surfbeat (early 1963), was one of the very first all-instrumental surf albums and sold 200,000 copies, an astronomical number for a regional act. This second album stuck to the same formula as the first, with "Tidal Wave" being a major standout.
