"Featuring the songs from another classic Australian surf movie
filmed by Paul Witzig in 1969, played by an Australian group
called Tamam Shud. This surfer quartet featured Lindsay Bjerre
and Tim Gaze -- both of them successful for their solo career.
Tamam Shud was one of the most original and innovative
Australian groups of the late '60s and early '70s. They played a
very important part as pioneers of acid-rock and progressive
music. For many years after they split, they were something of a
cult, and their original recordings were (and still are) very
hard to obtain. But thanks to a gratifying "comeback," and some
commercial success with their 1994 album Permanent Culture, and
the driving, bluesy single "Stay," there has been a significant
revival of interest in this outstanding and original group, and
it sparked interest in this classic band with younger listeners
as well. The evolution of Shud was typical of many groups of the
era, beginning as an instrumental band, through "beat" pop songs
and psychedelia
