I haven't listened to this album in 30 years , but was pleasantly surprised by how compatible it is with hawaiian folk-rock- country music of today. It has elements of Country Comfort from the 70's and brings back memories of my teen years, even if I was a crappy surfer.

When Honk was starting out they had played one Saturday evening at Arcadia High School, CA in the boys gym. After their gig, I bought the album just so I'd have it for a summer vacation beach house in Newport Beach. Must have played pipeline a hundred times that summer week.

I can't remember who turned me on to Honk. I'm sure it was at High School in Carpinteria, down by Rincon where many of my buddies would go surfing whenever escaping was possible.
Five Summer Stories remains great enjoyable mostly instrumental with a good beat and enjoyable melodies. "Bear Country" is one of my favorites. For great GS turns on the snow, on my horse in the country, or just cruisin down the road. But in reality, hard to pick one out of a bunch.
I was glad to find the CD after years of thinking about the album, not knowing where my old record has gone.
Check it out!

I remember when Honk used to play the Golden Bear in Huntington Beach back in the good old days. And they were good days, dude. We used to surf the south side of the pier all night, life was laid back and sweet, SoCal (Orange County in particular) wasn't yet a swarming freakshow, and there really were surf bands -- and surf movies. "Endless Summer" is considered by many to be the granddaddy of them all -- and that may be true -- but for me, "Five Summer Stories" captures that wonderful, beautiful shimmering moment in Southern California history that has sadly been lost forever. Lost? Make that paved, choked, and crowded out. The best we can do now is let the music take us back, and Honk does this. Get this CD and feel young again -- if you were there the first time. You gremmies have no choice but to just listen and dream of what you missed by being born too late.
