The Tornados - Stingray Aqua Marina
Review by Rhonda Holloway
The Tornados' latest album, Stingray Aqua Marina, is a vibrant and energetic collection of surf rock tunes that will transport listeners to the sunny beaches of California. The band's signature sound is on full display, with catchy guitar riffs and driving drum beats that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in time.
One standout track is "Pipeline Rodeo," which features a twangy guitar melody and a propulsive rhythm section that will leave you feeling like you're riding the waves. "Surf's Up!" is another highlight, with its upbeat tempo and infectious chorus that will have you singing along in no time.

About The Tornados
The Tornados were an English instrumental group mostly active in the 1960s.
The house band for pioneering record producer . Their original and classic line-up comprised (guitar), (drums), Burt (bass), (rhythm guitar) and (keyboards). Their instrumental material was composed and produced by Meek, and frequently had a futuristic sound, reflecting Meek's interest in electronics and sound manipulation. Although their first single "Love And Fury" bombed, the follow-up "" caught the public imagination and was a number one hit in both the UK and USA; they were the first British group ever to top the US Hot Hundred. The quintet enjoyed several more UK hits, though the original line-up began to fall apart when Heinz Burt left for a solo career as a vocalist in 1963 he scored one major UK hit, "Just Like Eddie" later that year and none of the original members remained by the time the Tornados finally disbanded upon Meek's death in 1967.
Do not confuse with american surf rock band , famous for the track "Bustin' Surfboards".
