Best of

THE 2006 Columbia/Sundazed release, says it best:

NO GROUP EPITOMIZED THE SUN-
SOAKED CALIFORNIA SOUND BETTER THAN THE fabulous Rip Chords

Led by legendary producer Terry Melcher along with future Beach Boy Bruce Johnston and ace-vocalists Ernie Bringas and Phil Stewart, these long-board big-guns left an indelible mark on the surf’n strip sounds of the ‘60s…. the best of the Rip Chords! 20 trophy winning tracks!
