About the Artist
THE COLLEGIANS have been entertaining for over 30 years. The band, known for "Beach Music", is diversified in musical styles. THE COLLEGIANS have performed with THE DRIFTERS, CHAIRMEN OF THE BOARD, BREEZE BAND, CATALINAS, THE ENTERTAINERS, IMPRESSIONS, 1964 BEATLES, BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE, VAN DELLS and many others. Audiences from Williamsburg, VA to Greenville, TN have enjoyed the band at festivals, dances, weddings and many many private functions
Product Description
The Collegians, well known for their "East Coast Beach Music", have come up with a collection of songs that fits well within that general style but extends the genre into new territory. Yes, there are some good shaggin' tempos. But, you will also enjoy the touch of soul and R&B several of the tracks employ as well as a couple of heart felt ballads.
While the word "shag" speaks to the sex act, the shag dance is definitely a mood-killer for any normal human being. You've got to see it done to see what a total sexual turn-off this dance is - it's about as sexy as a Texas two-step, yet an entire culture of mediocrity that only exists in the south Atlantic has grown up around this effeminate, laughable Lindy done at warp-speed. It's definitely more embarrassing to witness when performed by a male of the species, but is still pathetic when done by anything with two legs.
Notwithstanding their on-stage outfits of the period, the Beach Boys music of their golden days in the 1960's had much too much class and sophistication to qualify as beach music (plus, you can't shag dance to it), but those unsuspecting people who move to the southeast from other parts of the US or world always assume that is what is meant by "beach music". Maybe that is true in the universe at large, but not in the southeast. Although the great songs of the Drifters and many classic Motown songs have been unfortunately labeled as "beach music" by those involved in the culture, "Carolina Beach Music", more specifically, is much more often than not simply embarrassingly awful music written and performed by bands from the Carolinas, usually aging white men wearing Sansabelt pants and Hawaiian shirts. The Band of Oz, the Embers, the Breeze Band, the Poor Souls, Billy Scott and the Prophets, the Catalinas, the Fantastic Shakers, are but a few of the local bands that make tons of money in the southeast and that could not get arrested off of their home turf. The popularity of this garbage being confined to the Carolinas says alot about the taste of the residents of those two states.
