Barry, Some of the tracks are Australian covers of American songs while others sound like obscure album tracks of American groups. You can hear the distinctive sounds of the Delltones, the Crushers and, maybe I was imagining it, Col Joye and the Joy Boys.
Other than finding a special interest surfing mailing list on usenet/easynews, the only suggestion I can make is to talk to the record librarian of a radio station that used to be big back in the surfing heyday. If you were in Brisbane, I would suggest 4KQ but I don't know the stations in Sydney. That is probably not such a bad idea because there is a radio show on Saturday nights on 4KQ that plays a lot of pretty obscure tracks from the 50s and 60s. I think it is syndicated to stations throughout Australia. If you could track down the person who compiles that, you might get access to a good record library. Perhaps you could give 4KQ in Brisbane a call and ask them who compiles the oldies show for Saturday.

I have them on some old reel to reel tapes and the quality is pretty bad. A medley of them can be heard at http://users.bigpond.net.au/chapman/Unknown.m3u For some I can guess or know the song title, but don't know the artist. If anyone can help to identify them, I would be very very grateful. Any advice as to where I might be able to get them would also be appreciated.
