Don't look now but it's... The Daytonas (CORD-006 LP)

Okay, so this blog has been dormant for the last 10 months. No apologies. I had other shit to do. But, I thought it was probably time to dust off the cobwebs and start sharing some more music from my collection.

I thought I'd start with this LP by The Daytonas for two reasons: 1) It's one of my favourite records; and 2) my friend Judy had this record stolen from her car along with a bunch of others many years ago, and recently when she found out I also had a copy I promised her I'd rip it for her.

This LP was put out by Australian label Corduroy Records (now deceased) back in 1994 and it's long out of print. I don't really know anything about the band except they're Swedish - the front cover reads "Hangin' Ten Cool Surf and Hot Rod Songs from Swingin' Sweden!" - and I bought the record purely because of that tag line, and also because anything on Corduroy Records was a genuinely good bet. And a good bet it was. This was a staple in my listening diet of my late teens. 

Corduroy put out another of their records a few years later, a double LP called 'Parabolica', which I'll throw up on this blog another time.

Anyway, enough dribble from me, have a listen.
