We board the Catching A Wave Time Machine again this hour for the week of July 1, 1966 to hear some songs on the chart for radio station WLS Chicago (including the song at the top). There's a tune from an album by Link Wray that's celebrating it's 50th anniversary in our Good Time segment. Beth Riley has a solo track by Carl Wilson in her Surf's Up- Beth's Beach Boys Break. We'll drop a coin in the Jammin' James Jukebox to hear our selection of the week. Plus, killer new tunes from The Fathoms, Secret Agent, The Boss Martians, The Scimitars, The Jagaloons, The Beach Berserkers, The Masonics, The Greasy Gills, The Yeggs, Dead Kampers, The Alley Oops and The Babalooneys!
