Notes:  Coming out of the heart of Nashville we have an instrumental surf group who adorn themselves Mexican wrestling regalia. And the boys can flat-out play. Slow ones, fast ones, ones that make you want to get up and dance with abandon. All the while peering out at the crowd through their unique masks. A spectacle to behold it is. The cover art reaches back into their Pre-Columbian past to see into the very heart of the Straitjackets. The CD has been tricked out to appaer as a vinyl 45. And for a treat click here for a peek at some pictures of the guys from the "Rasslin'"  magazine From Parts Unknown.
