Album Notes

A message from our buddy Dean O. Torrence.

The "Vertikals" are "Jim Alquist" and "James Armstrong," two of the luckiest guys I know. Since they were teenagers,
their direct musical association with artists like "Jan & Dean," "The Beach Boys" and "The Turtles" has had a unique effect on their song writing careers. "Vertikals" tunes are not nostalgic.

Clearly, this is New Music! Through my own personal introduction, "Armstrong" & "Brian Wilson" buddied up together for over 6 1/2 years. That friendship has created a profound effect in the arrangement and production techniques I hear in "Vertikals" music today.

All I can say is "turn it up and enjoy!"

Stay cool and keep on surfin'.

REVIEWS

Bitchen!
author: Kim McLaughlin (Marcum)
This CD is so fun! As a product of the 60's & 70's, I have listened to this CD so many times that I think I need to order a backup CD in the event I wear this one out. I was a big fan of surfer music and John Lennon is my favorite. If I had to choose one cut off this CD it would have to be Revelation I, although there isn't one I don't like. Waiting somewhat impatiently for the next CD.

Vertikals -- A Little Bit of Everything!
author: Barbara D., Newport Beach, CA
WOW! What a great CD! I like all kinds of music, and this has a little bit of everything -- Pop, Rock-N-Roll, Reggae, etc. My favorites are Baby Run, Girlfriend and Barbara Ann. Can't wait to hear what these guys come up with next!

Kathryn, Maui HI. I feel great whenever I put on this CD and I am a fussy listener.Fabuous melodies, beats, vocals..Instumentals..Cannot say enough good things..A few of these songs will not leave your cellular memory..Highly recommend this for people who appreciate the finer things in life. Songwriting that celebrates the past but does not dwell there..Need to leave for work now but this CD is coming with me. Keeps me energised.
