Jan and Dean, the Beach Boys, Sandy Nelson and others brought us the West Coast feeling of Surf, fast cars and beautiful girls at a time of transition between the sounds of the 50s and the classic rock of the 60s and 70s. We learned new terms about surfing, hot rods and the somewhat rebellious crowds that went with both cultures - where "hot" and "cool" often meant almost the same thing. --rgouldtx
