The Astronauts were an American rock and roll band, who had a minor hit in 1963 with "Baja" and remained successful for several years, especially in Japan. Regarding the band's performance in 1964's Surf Party, the book Pop Surf Culture states The Astronauts bang out a thick, reverb-laden instrumental called ‘Firewater,’ and their theme song ‘Surf Party’ happens to be one of the best surf instrumentals ever recorded. See Filmography, below). Gallagher and Lindsey were drafted for Vietnam before the last album, Travelin' Men in 1967, and were replaced by Mark Bretz and Rod Jenkins respectively.

Competition Coupe" (written by surf scenesters Christian and Usher) stands up well to early numbers in the same vein by the Beach Boys and Jan & Dean, but covers of classics like "Around And Around," "Twist And Shout," and "Susie-Q" are lead-footed. And the group original "You Gotta Let Me Go" is a transparent ripoff of the Beatles' "I'll Be Back. The instrumentals on this collection have a gloriously supple power, though.
