This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review The Torpedos - For Duty And Humanity album.
For Duty And Humanity album is a mix of instrumental covers and original songs. One side of the cassette is instrumentals and the other side is vocals. The other side is all originals by The Torpedos band. Surf rock meets classic rock on this particular album. The surf rock here is similar to that boogie music. The artwork you see on the front cover is similar to the album cover artwork on punk rock albums. Real monochromatic with mostly a black cover. Dick Chicet does the guitar playing throughout the entirety of the album. Johnny Lightning performs the percussion. He is the percussionist. The Torpedos band is from Grand Rapids, Michigan.
The Wild One is a Link Wray cover. Phantom on Lane 12 is a Crider cover. Monster from the Surf is a Frank Sinatra Jr. cover. Pacific Shores is a Bergman cover. Half of the album is basically instrumental cover songs by famous musicians.
I rate this album, For Duty And Humanity, 4/5****!
