Frankie & The Poolboys
Led by Pollo Del Mar guitarist Ferenc Dobronyi, Frankie & The Pool Boys are a surf “supergroup” featuring Dusty Watson (Dick Dale, Agent Orange, Slacktone, etc.) on drums and PDM’s Jeff Turner on bass, along with
cameos from Shigeo Naka (Japan’s The Surf Coasters), Dave Wronski (Slacktone), Ivan Pongracic (The Madeira, The Space Cossacks), Mel Waldorf (Meshugga Beach Party, Los Mel-tones) and 2008 Rock’n'Roll Hall of Fame inductee Bob Spaulding (The Ventures). The sound is strictly old world warm, no distortion boxes or digital reverbs were used. The styles range from reverb drippin’ trad (“Teke, Teke, Teke”, “Johnny Fool”) to Spaghetti Western (“A Man Called Dirt”, “Finito Bandito”).
