The Following is copied from the internet of a previous Ebay Listing 2007
This has got to be the most desirable and rarest Beach Boys recording they ever made.
Murray Wilson, the father of the brothers and a songwriter, took the boys to his publisher Hite Morgan who in turn took the to Keen Recording Studios. Dennis the only member of the group who surfed thought that it would be a good subject for a song and suggested it to Brian. Brian then wrote "Surfin" and with Mike wrote "Surfin' Safari," songs they made into demos in 1961.
Murray took the demos to Herb Newman, who owned Candix and Era Records. On December eighth Newman signed the group. Ross Regan, Era's promotion man, suggested they change their name to the Beach Boys. In December 1961 "Surfin' was issued on X Records, Morgan's label, as a promo and Candix.
This copy is in very good condition. Must have been played very little. There are some light surface scratches and blemishes on the record but these do not penetrate into the grooves and effect the sound quality at all. Plays like new condition.
