THE BONGO TEENS & PRESTON EPPS - "SURFIN' BONGOS"
(available in separate MONO () and STEREO () editions with the same bonus tracks)
Download-only official release from the master tapes!
Background Notes:
When Art Laboe of the Original Sound label contacted Paul Buff about recording some surf tracks with bongos in the spring of 1963, Buff got together with guitarist Dave Aerni and became The Bongo Teens. Other than guitar, Paul Buff played and recorded everything else himself.
Laboe’s idea was to combine three tracks from Preston Epps (of “Bongo Rock” fame) with whatever Paul Buff could come up with. Including Preston Epps’ #14 hit “Bongo Rock” and his #78 hit “Bongo Bongo Bongo,” “Surfin’ Bongos” was completed that summer and was originally issued by Original Sound in September 1963. Here is the first official reissue of that album from the original mono and stereo album masters, along with many rarities and unreleased tracks drawn from master tapes and acetates. In addition, The Bongo Teens’ version of “Bustin’ Surfboards” (originally by The Tornadoes) was featured in the film “Aloha Summer.”
As part of the bonus rarities, both sides of The Rotations’ single (“Heavies”/ “The Cruncher”) and the Brian Lord & The Midnighters single (“The Big Surfer”/ “Not Another One!”) are included along with extremely rare tracks (“Baja Rhythm” and “La Gran Ola”) that were only released in Mexico. “The Big Surfer” was written by Frank Zappa, who played guitar and portrayed a surfer on the track.

THE HOLLYWOOD PERSUADERS - "DRUMS A-GO-GO"
(available in separate MONO () and STEREO () editions with different mixes of the bonus tracks on each edition)
Download-only official release from the master tapes!
Liner Notes from the original album:
By popular demand, Original Sound Records presents this album…DRUMS A-GO-GO…The EXCITING, FRESH approach of DRUMS and RHYTHM in the foreground!
DRUMS A-GO-GO was recorded at Original Sound Studios in Hollywood on their exclusive high fidelity, super stereo, ten-track tape machine, which is the invention of the electronic wizard – leader of The Hollywood Persuaders – Paul Buff, who also wrote many of the compositions contained in this album. This album makes slow parties “come alive” – and “live” parties go into orbit…HAVE FUN! – Art Laboe, President, Original Sound Records
Additional Background Notes:
When Paul Buff came up with a Mexican-sounding instrumental entitled “Tijuana Surf” at his Pal Studios in Cucamonga, California, he asked fellow Pal musician Frank Zappa to write a B-side. Zappa turned in the brilliant, fuzz-toned instrumental “Grunion Run,” and Buff sold the recordings to Art Laboe’s Original Sound label. The Hollywood Persuaders became Buff’s performing name, but they were not a band! With very few exceptions, Paul Buff would play all the instruments.
When Original Sound released “Tijuana” in the summer of 1963, the record became a big regional success. In fact, the record was released twice: as “Tijuana Surf” by The Persuaders, and as “Tijuana” by The Hollywood Persuaders. “Tijuana” was released in Mexico and Argentina as by Los Persuaders and went on to spend 16 weeks at #1 in Mexico – even preventing The Beatles’ “I Want To Hold Your Hand” from reaching the top spot!
The success of “Tijuana” enabled Buff to create more Hollywood Persuaders recordings, and back royalties from the record also helped bail Frank Zappa out of jail after he was arrested in March 1965!
The following single “Persuasion”/ “Juarez” did not stir up the same kind of sales as “Tijuana,’ but Paul Buff was working on an idea which showcased drums in the arrangement. Buff’s first attempt was entitled “Drums” and simply featured drums with his wife Allison’s backing vocals. This version was released on an extremely rare promotional single with “Yes, I Want To Dance” as the B-side. Paul Buff went back and completely re-recorded the track with an extremely powerful drum presence, more instrumentation and a sax replacing Allison Buff’s vocal. This version became “Drums A-Go-Go,” and it was an even bigger local success. It also just missed hitting Billboard’s single chart, but it generated even more attention through cover versions by the likes of Sandy Nelson and Hal Blaine. The flipside of “Drums A-Go-Go” was “Agua Caliente (Hot Water),” another Mexican-styled instrumental. The belated Mexican success of “Tijuana” led to the release of a unique LP containing tracks from The Hollywood Persuaders, The Rotations (please see The Bongo Teens/ Preston Epps “Surfin’ Bongos” album for those tracks) and The Teen Beats. “Drums A-Go-Go” has become The Hollywood Persuaders’ most recognizable song, and it was also included in the film “Natural Born Killers.”
In the late spring of 1965, Art Laboe of Original Sound gave Paul Buff the go-ahead to do a “Drums A-Go-Go” album. It was released in August 1965. Aside from the title track and a new mix of “Tijuana,” the album included reworkings of “Persuasion” as well as The Bongo Teens’ tracks “Last Night” and “Forget It.” Buff did some more recordings by himself and called in fellow Original Sound artist Adam Saylor’s backing band (Brian Blanchard, Bob Husband and Mike Martin) to do the tracks “Eve Of Destruction,” “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” and “Hollywood A-Go-Go.” The third song by this lineup was backed by the first song for The Hollywood Persuaders’ final single.
Paul Buff went on to do the Original Sound-released solo single “She’s Got A 60 Cycle Brain”/ “Cause I Love You” and many tracks with Allison Buff as The Buff Organization. These tracks are available as part of Paul Buff’s 20-volume Pal Studio/ Original Sound series. Buff also engineered many recordings by other artists at Original Sound Studios, including The Music Machine, The Strawberry Alarm Clock and Sugarloaf, to name just three.

The Hollywood Persuaders released just five singles (including a promo-only release) between 1963 and 1965, but the original single mixes have never appeared in digital form (from the original master tapes) until now. In addition to both sides of Paul Buff’s solo single “Slow Bird”/ “Blind Man’s Buff,” there are many unreleased tracks: two versions of “Evil Underneath,” a demo version of “Drums A-Go-Go,” “Go-Go Music,” “Organ Stomp,” “Cruisin’,” a demo version of “Agua Caliente (Hot Water),” “Rollin’,” and “Something Else,” which only exists on an acetate. Another rarity is the Mexican album version of “Yes, I Want To Dance,” and you even get a count off before Frank Zappa’s “Grunion Run”!

VARIOUS ARTISTS: PAUL BUFF PRESENTS THE PAL AND ORIGINAL SOUND STUDIO ARCHIVES, VOL. 1
()
Pal Records was a record company run by Buff's mother Olivia and stepfather Ward Allen. After Buff was honorably discharged from the military, he finished putting together Pal Studios in December 1957. The studio costs were $12.50/hour for mono recording and $15/hour for stereo. Local musicians booked the studio to make recordings of their rehearsals and repertoire. When Pal Records wound itself down in mid-1959, Buff created his first record label – Emmy. Other labels (Plaza, Yukon and Vigah!) would follow shortly thereafter. The music presented on this series was released on extremely rare records that would literally cost thousands if you can find them. In addition, there are many unreleased tracks spanning from 1960 to 1969. Paul Buff is now making them available again for everyone to appreciate. Volume 1 includes “Breaktime”, Frank's first released recording; “Can’t Stand Up”, featuring FZ on multiple guitar parts (the first of the unreleased Pal tracks in this series that feature FZ); the original version of “Deserie”, with Ray Collins on vocals; “Dear Jeepers” by Bob Guy; “Hey Nelda” by Ned And Nelda (aka FZ and Ray Collins); “Love Of My Life” sung by Ron Roman; and “Cyclophony”, FZ’s appearance on Steve Allen’s television show in March 1963 as transferred from the original film, making it the best quality presentation of this track ever released.
