January 24, 2024 Records of the Day

“Surfin’ Bird” by the Trashmen, despite the refusal of many radio stations to play it, climbed all the way to #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1963. It’s one of those songs you either love or hate. Released on Garrett Records, the single is worth up to $25.00. The Trashmen never found big success again but their 45 of “Whoa Dad,” with picture sleeve, released in 1964, is worth up to $250.00 today.
