I normally grade records by sight rather than by playing them.
The Atlantics were a band that was far ahead of their time. They are labeled as a "surf band" but there's a lot more going on than that genre would imply. Their music is a bit reminiscent of The Shadows at times, but not particularly reminiscent of the "surf sound" that was happening in the US at the time. They also get into a bit of experimentation with their sound...some echo, some sonic noodling, etc. I really don't know anything about the musical background of the band members, but I would guess some classical training was present somewhere. These guys were good at arrangements too...just listen to the bass on "SOS (Stomp on Stomp)" as it darts in and out up and down the scale, and that song has to have one of the most haunting and memorable guitar riffs of any instrumental that I have ever heard. "Shark Attack" and "Coral Island" are also standout tracks. I can't imagine what one of their shows would have been like at the time this album was released.
