The first and only release on Scene Records, "No Surf" garnered relentless airplay on WMMS and other stations in the summer of 1978 and moved more than 11,000 copies in just over a month. Euclid Beach Band T-shirts started popping up in clubs, and a working lineup was cobbled together to play live. When Cleveland International Records re-released the single, kids were singing "No Surf" from L.A. to Scandinavia.
"It was a legitimate-selling record," Girard says. "After that, we did an album and it flopped, and it wasn't fun anymore. It became another Cleveland band that didn't make it."
