Space Rangers, The – “Ready to Take Off” – [Kamikaze Records]

The Space Rangers are from Ulm, Germany and were the big buzz band at the Surf Guitar 101 Convention in 2010, both for their terrific music and their fun stage presence.?? This CD does not disappoint, some tracks lean toward rock or even Spaghetti Western or Spy soundtracks but most are excellent surf. ?? Addition of organ to bass/guitar/percussion produces a solid wall of sound – try Track 1 for a fine example.

Fun facts:?? Ulm was the birthplace of Albert Einstein and is situated on the river Danube.
