Welcome! (That's part of the reason i sent this post, to see who else is out there and stuff........)

What else besides the Beach boys is good over there? I would imagine rare surf and garage records?

Unfortunately, I don't know much about surf or garage really, but there are great shops out here throughout CA. Live-wise, there are some great bands at the moment. Nick Waterhouse (who I'm guilty of not checking out live yet) has a couple of great R&B 45s out. Also, Nick Rossi is part of a new instrumental R&B band called The PaceSetters, which have a 45 out on LugNut records.

Good things right now out here!

If I may barge in, I think Nick Waterhouse and his Is That Clear EP are fantastic. I never seen him live myself, but the EP makes up for it.

What's interesting about that NW 45 is that he's a local new guy, yet, from what I've heard, that 45 is already commanding northern soul prices.

I should have bought more than 1 copy!

Here is lesser known Surf-Garage 45 that I spin once in a while back here at the Mod Club. Apparently, The Sunrays opened for The Beach Boys back in the day.

Ha! Ha! I knew you would like that one Andrew. The good news is that it's not that expensive.

But let me guess... You already have it...

Add another from the States.  My girlfriend and I hail from Atlanta, GA.  I've been spying this site for some time.  Only now have I gotten around to actually setting up a profile.

Anyway, Atlanta has several great soul and RnB DJ's.  (Un)fortunately, the trend locally here has been more garage/ psych/ Swirlie oriented.  To each their own I suppose, however, for me I find it good in small doses.  Je prefere jazz/ soul sounds.

It's good to finally be on here!
