Description by OLDIES.com:
Neatly divided between studio and live tracks, The Rip Chords bring back all the torque and twang of California's hot rod/surf music heyday with some sweet twists. Alongside such classics as "Hey Little Cobra" and "409" are great new interpretations of The Left Banke's "Walk Away Renee" and an absolutely smokin' version of The Byrds' "So You Wanna Be a Rock 'n Roll Star." This is toes-at-the-edge-of-the-board stuff!
