Surf music from Boulder, CO. What could be better! Seriously, if you like surf-type music this is a great collection. I originally bought a used LP for my older brother and knew nothing about the Astronauts. After listening to the album I was compelled to look for more. This collection contains everything an Astronaut-phobe would want and lots of great stuff for those looking for surf style music with some wammin', jammin' going on.

This review is from: The Astronauts: The Legendary Group at Their Best (Audio CD)

The Astronauts are...well...a very interesting guitar group from the early 60's. Their original quality of sound on the RCA Label was astounding. The best in the business at that time.

These guys who have reproduced them in a boxed set have done a good job at selection. But the CD quality is POOR. A song simply stops in mid-stream and goes to the next track. It is irritating. If you love the Astronauts as I do, you'll put up with the glitches. If you're a perfectionist, don't buy these reproductions.
