Any fan of surf music should be familiar with The Pyramids and this LP called "The Pyramids Play The Original Penetration!" Unless you want to take out a bank loan, then you'll just have to be happy with what you can hear on YouTube because this record is quite pricey!
The Pyramids were a unique band in more than one way, and instead of long hair, they opted for shaved heads, and I might be wrong, but they were probably the only 60's surf band that had a black guitarist in the group.
Sundazed Records released this "Best Of" album in 2022, and their website says "Their big hit, "Penetration," stayed in the Top Ten (Billboard) for 13
weeks and even reached #4 nationally; only the Beatles prevented the
song from rising higher."
"Penetration" was their biggest hit, but I like this one just as much because of the sax in the instrumentation!
