Description
This is from the notes of the only other sale of this rare 45!…..
Guaranteed original press. I can't find any other examples of this 45 having sold online, or any pictures of it or audio clips of the music. The only mention I can find of it is in the "about" section for one of Richard George's own YouTube videos (of a different song), which I've summarized here: "Surfboard For Christmas" (along with the B-side "Shum-Doo-Bee-Doo") was recorded in 1963 as a demo for George to pitch to his friends The Beach Boys, but they weren't interested in the song, so he pressed up a small number on his own "Season's Greetings" label to send to other industry folks. Richard Delvy of The Challengers responded to the demo, leading him to produce George and a few of his friends as The Woodies (later known as The Woods).
