Great 60's surf music by way of the 80's
Even Frankie Avalon's conservative vocals can't ruin the infectious "California Sun" and Annette Funicello takes another crack at "Jamaica Ska" (she did it many years ago on one of her beach party albums)and fares slightly better with the assist of Redbone. Excellent recapturing of the 60's surf sound with an 80's spin makes for a terrific soundtrack album. Best track by far is "Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun,Sun" with it's oft-repeated and totally rippin' "let's go" lyric punching up the great beat throughout. "Catch a Ride" used over the film's opening title's is an excellent track also. The 80's new wave tunes fare less well but the 60's stuff makes this a can't miss soundtrack. .
