Members Califa Posted October 21, 2013 Members Share Posted October 21, 2013 So, I'm writing an essay on instrumental surf rock and its origins. I'm looking for some resources. Books, documentaries, compilation albums with well-written sleeve notes. Pretty much anything goes. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
