Spring continues to bring great new rockin' tunes to the Catching A Wave playlist every week! This hour, we hear a tune from The Mermen from an album celebrating it's 30th anniversary in our Good Time segment. We board the Catching A Wave Time Machine for the week of February 12th, 1966 for some songs on the WQAM 560 AM Miami chart. Beth Riley has a deep track from The Beach Boys in her Surf's Up Beth's Beach Boys Break and we drop a coin in the Jammin' James Jukebox to hear our selection of the week (the band includes a young Benjamin Orr many years before helping form The Cars)! Plus, there's tunes from The Nebulas, Bankes Brothers, La Luz, Martin Cilia, Manic Vila, The Mings, The Hamiltones, Hypersonic Secret, Frank Turner, Los Oxidados and Rich Arithmetic!
