You Need More Than A Gun On This Safari



The Surf Trio

Sufari In A Living Graveyard

1988

*

Taking the Ramones' retro-'50s and early-'60s obsessions to their logical conclusion, Portland, OR's the Surf Trio (who actually have four members) play a brand of catchy, energetic garage punk, owing much to surf pop and instrumental artists like the Beach Boys, the Ventures, and Link Wray. Most of the Surf Trio's songs are written by either bassist/vocalist Jeff Martin or guitarist/vocalist Ron Kleim, with the occasional cover thrown into the mix. After a self-titled EP for Moxie in 1985, the Surf Trio recorded the full-length Almost Summer for Voxx in 1986, followed by Safari in a Living Graveyard for Moxie two years later. Forbidden Sounds appeared in 1999 on the Dionysus label.

One of my all-time favorites -- I originally had this on cassette, then upgraded to the CD when the cassette wore out.
