Title: Re: Surfers' Pajama Party Post by: I. Spaceman on January 31, 2006, 12:03:17 PM Hell yes. A real jam-party album. Throw it on when you have a party. I do and it gets everyone dancin'. 5.

Title: Re: Surfers' Pajama Party Post by: SG7 on January 19, 2008, 09:23:17 AM Really funny and horrible at the same time. Hearing Bruce do Ray Charles is really hysterical and worth the $7 I bought the CD of this for.

Hearing Bruce do Ray Charles is really hysterical and worth the $7 I bought the CD of this for. 2 I give it 2 as well - thankfully I got it for free ;D I usually like Bruce's work, but... Not this. Title: Re: Surfers' Pajama Party Post by: Aegir on January 19, 2008, 02:21:43 PM I'll give it a three. It really is kind of funny in the sense that "Gee But I'm Lonesome" is pretty much the only Bruce Johnston-esque song on the album, and in all the others he's portraying himself the hip young leader of a rockin' frat party band, with varying degrees of success. At least half the songs have the same blues chord progression.
I wonder who the rest of the band was. Title: Re: Surfers' Pajama Party (Bruce Johnston) Post by: bluesno1fann on September 25, 2013, 06:41:22 PM I'm very surprised at how good this live album is. In fact it's a favourite now!
I say this is a must-get for anyone interested. The covers are rockin', and the quality isn't too bad. 4 out of 5. Title: Re: Surfers' Pajama Party (Bruce Johnston) Post by: Jason on September 25, 2013, 06:45:09 PM Yeah, this is a raucous live record.
Title: Re: Surfers' Pajama Party (Bruce Johnston) Post by: Mr. Wilson on November 29, 2013, 11:05:12 AM Well my opinion is very different sorry.. IMHO.. This record is so bad its a wonder he ever got a recording contract.. Unlistenable.!
