What about including Bill Deal and the Rhondels from Virginia Beach? He had 3 top 40 hits in the late 60's and early 70's. "May I", "I've Been Hurt" and "What Kind of Fool Am I". Great show Band and and extremely popular in the Hampton Roads area. Such a shame he passed away so early.
66 here and still love my beach musici remember in my mid 20s seeing craig woolard at boondinis subs often he always reminded me of bob seger and sounded much like him and remember the old embers club downtown raleigh and at the beach,god i miss those days
Is this phenomenon a kind of East Coast alternative to the West Coast "Surfin Sound" of the early 1960s ? Sounds GREAT !! (I've only recently gotten onto The Swingin Medallions .. what a blast).
No. This music has roots in rhythm and blues. West Coast surfing music is nothing like it. Carolina Beach music is also closely associated with shag dancing.
Actually this music started BEFORE the West Coast Surfin Sound hit. Those groups just had better promotions behind them. That's why they went nation wide so quick.

This music has been so Under appreciated in many ways ! Have heard most of them before but in Texas was not referred to as Beach music more like R-B .
This is truly awesome. Great choice of music with it...but you left out Legends of Beach band!
