Destination Beach: 30 Tunes For Dancing In The Sand (CD)

Release Date: 08/05/22

Summer, sun, beach: it's been so long since our last beach vacation!

The beach feeling with its healing rays of the sun comes to your home as a private soundtrack with this CD compilation on Bear Family Records®.

A total of 30 songs by Frankie Avalon, Bobby Darin, Bobby Vee and Freddie Cannon, among others, will accompany you on a warm sunny day while you enjoy the beach atmosphere and work on your tan.

You'll take notice with lesser-known artists like Buddy Skipper and The Jetty Jumpers, Wayne Hollers, Al Barkle and Ray Doggett.

End the beautiful day with the Danleers and the delightful One Summer Night, for example.

Summertime's here, and it's been so long since we've been to the beach to soak up the sun's healing rays and engage in a day of red-hot fun! Bear Family has a perfect new soundtrack to accompany your trip to the oceanfront: 30 tracks that are all about frolicking in the sand and working on your tan while relaxing on your favorite blanket. Familiar names are scattered throughout the compilation; after all, no one knew how to throw a beach party better than Frankie Avalon, and his handsome pals Bobby Darin, Bobby Vee, and Freddie Cannon are here too. But there are also killer obscurities by Buddy Skipper and The Jetty Jumpers, Wayne Hollers, Al Barkle, and Ray Doggett, while R&B sax wailers Big Al Sears and Freddie Mitchell blow up a honking sandstorm. After the sun goes down and a cool breeze begins to waft in off the water, The Danleers' dreamy 1958 doo-wop smash One Summer Night is a perfect choice for slow dancing under the stars. Even guitar mauler Link Wray gets into the act with a surprisingly melodic Summer Dream. Pack the cooler, bring plenty of sunscreen, and pop 'Destination Beach' into your portable CD player at the first opportunity. Even on the hottest summer afternoon, it's the coolest!
