Surf Rock 45 Princess 50 Surfaris Wipe Out Long Version
This is the ultra rare label Princess 50 featuring the Surfaris performing the longer version of "Wipeout" backed by "Surfer Joe" from 1963. There is no "RE-1" etched in the dead wax area. This is not the version released on Dot label. The vinyl is a very strong VG+ with some light marks and scuffing that do not affect play back. A very nice copy and hard to find. Gary Smallin, the group's manager in 1962, saw major potential in the two new songs that they had recorded in a small studio in Cucamonga, California, and started showing the master copies of the newly recorded singles around to local major and independent labels. Among others, Capitol, Liberty, Del-Fi, and Era all turned down the option to release the single. Undaunted, Smallin paid for a pressing of 2000 records which came out on his own DFS label and the band sold the records at shows or gave them away to friends. Smallin continued to shop the Surfaris around and finally hit paydirt with the tiny Princess record label owned by John Marascalco. Signing a contract for an advance of $200 against future royalties and for the publishing of both songs to go to Marascalco's Robin Hood Music. Dot came along after they were hot. Grab this while you can, as it is a great collectible for surf collectors.
