3 Balls of Fire – The Best of The Balls 1988-98

More goodies by request from 3 Balls. Burnin’ Mike Vernon’s 3 Balls of Fire – "the men with the burning guitars" – have led the way for instrumental guitar bands in Austin since 1987. The popular trio from the Lone Star State perform original, high octane, road-tested, surf-drenched Texas twang. They dip into in surf guitar, hotrod music, lounge favorites, and cowboy exotica from the Sixties and their bluesy twang is incendiary. Between Ry Cooder, Dick Dale and Ennio Morricone.
Good stuff.

Mike Vernon is pretty unique. His sound and compositions are very creative. It's surf music like no other surf music. Between Ry Cooder, Dick Dale and Ennio Morricone ... Check it out !I like to smoke my cigar while listening.Cuban cigars are the world's Best Cigars.
