Not Just One But Double Diamonds Deluxe


Shig And The Buzz
Double Diamonds Deluxe
2005

*

"Double Diamonds" was originally recorded in the mid-90's. The initial release, which included the first twelve tracks on this current CD, were enthusiastically received by music critics, DJs and instrumental fans alike. Soon, the College Music Journal listed "Double Diamonds" in the top 25 songs of its play list. But, alas, band members couldn't agree on the direction of the music and for the next several years, the album was "frozen" in dispute.Over the years, many of the tracks have been covered by prominent instrumental bands in the San Francisco Bay Area and the album continues to get air-play on college radio to this day.Four "bonus" tracks have been added for your listening pleasure. They were recorded a couple of years after "Double Diamonds" and are worthy of making this new release truly the "Double Diamonds Deluxe" edition.In September 2006, it was nominated for "Best Surf Album" for the Just Plain Folks Music

Trustar,Sakes alive brother you went post crazy this week.That's cool i like it when you get all wacky like that.
The Shig and Buzz album you have here is cool and all,but their first one on Mai Tai Records is even way better if my memory serves me right.The problem is I only heard it once from a long gone friend and this post got me thinkin'.Do you by any chance have the album i'm talking about.If so ,that would make for a super duper post.Nobody has ever posted the album so that would be cool,and it's way out of print.
