I would love to have this album. My dad and I used to watch the original and II all the time together and play the theme on our guitars. And I just got a new record player!

This would be an awesome trip down memory lane!

"Endless Summer" is a beloved movie in my house, along with Bruce Brown's "On Any Sunday". The soundtrack to "On Any Sunday" is also love-sexy, but I already own a copy of that. So, without further ado, allow me to shamelessly and selfishly chant "pick me! pick me!"

It's one of my favorite movies; I love that type of mellow jazz they use in the film. I also have many other albums to keep it company and an excellent turntable to play it on.

Do you post to the UK?! I went to art college in Cornwall and used to watch this & the sequel with my housemates, to get us in the mood to hop in a car over to the north coast & dust off our boards. Then we'd look out the window at the grey drizzle...

Love this movie - it's timeless, and so are the tunes.

Great movie, great iconic poster and wonderful laid back soundtrack.

I would give it a good home in the Midwest, while wishing I knew how to longborad.

ES and ES2 were our go-to movies when my son was little. To this day, he can quote large sections of the narration & dialogue. He'd get a real kick out of this.

I grew up on this movie in Long Beach. Currently living in Texas this movie makes me homesick.

I am crossing my fingers that I am the lucky winner. I have decorated my 2 year old son's bedroom with retro surf decor. A framed Endless Summer album would be the perfect addition!

the endless summer theme by the sandals is pure nostalgia. i'll probably never take a real surfing trip around the world, but the soundtrack might make me feel like i did.

My 1st record purchase, played 10,000 times!! Now sadly worn out, warped and scratched, but still the greatest!! I would die for a good copy!! The B side is the best side.
