Euclid Beach Band There's No Surf In Cleveland original 45

I have another posting of "There's No Surf In Cleveland" with the audio problem fixed that some of you may be experiencing (was recorded out of phase). The fixed copy is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYHnBYZwP94


I also now have the "B" side of this record "Laugh In The Dark" posted at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZTqW1WeODA

The original pressing of the Euclid Beach Band's "There's No Surf In Cleveland", Scene record label, 1978, remixed by Eric Carmen. I believe the record was re-released a little later on a national record label, sans the opening line "There's no surf in Cleveland USA". The B side is called "Laugh n The Dark" which was the name of a "dark ride" at Cleveland's now defunct Euclid Beach Park. Label and sleeve scans included.

I posted a better audio copy of this tune (this one was recorded out of phase, so may not play correctly), as well as the B side "Laugh In The Dark". Links for both upper right of page next to video window, you may have to click "more info". Sorry about the crappy audio quality of this posting.

When I first heard this song it was last year, when I was 49! True.

I immediately downloaded it and the lyrics, memorized it in two days, then sang it ad nauseum! Hopefully, I didn't drive anyone in the building. LOL

Someone was kind enough to send me "Laugh In The Dark" and now I wish I had been born in Cleveland. A bit Earlier.

This kind of stuff should still be written.

@dannykewl This one just sounds fine to me! Darn, I lost my mp3 download of it, too, so for a while I have to visit it on YouTube.

I wish I'd hear it years ago! But, I was just a little kid and it was more of a regional song, whereas I live in Ontario. Can't even swim across Lake Erie to try and search everyone's house for a copy! LOL Just funnin' ya.

I am SO grateful for seeing the song here, and having heard it just last year for the first time.
