| 'Guitars
of Love' ... an instrumental band playing instrumental tunes of the
'50s & '60s with an emphasis on the British take on surf twang - i.e.
the 'Shadows'
This type of musical genre is known mostly by folk in their '50s, who remember the resounding tones of a Stratocaster strung with strings the thickness of fencing wire played through a VOX AC30, gently issuing from Mom & Dad's old valve car radio on the way home from the beach in the early sixties.

'Cabin Fever' is a Melbourne R&B band playing some classic R&B & Rock & Roll. Click here for music recorded at the Phillip Island Superbikes February 2011. |

The idea was, to get together and record spontaneous snippets and ideas, and "turn them into something" using loops and then overdubbing.
