专辑简介
Digitally remastered two-fer containing a pair of albums from the Surf legends: Hey Little Cobra & Other Hot Rod Hits and Three Window Coupe (both released in 1964). The band was started Ernie Bringas and Phil Stewart in 1957, landing a deal with the Columbia label in 1962. Terry Melcher, then just 20 years old, was assigned to produce the duo's first single in '63, titled 'Here I Stand', which reached #51 on the national charts and was quickly followed by a second single, 'Gone'. It was at this time, Bruce Johnston was brought in, Melcher had written a song called 'Hey Little Cobra' and Melcher decided to record this under the name of The Rip Chords, with only himself and Johnston on vocals. The single reached number four on the American charts in 1964, with an album quickly following. In the Summer of '64, the band had another hit with 'Three Window Coupe', written by Jan Berry (of Jan And Dean fame) and Roger Christian. Again, an album of the same title quickly followed, with Melcher and Johnston handling a lot of the vocals.
