In the 1960s and early 1970s, 38 of the band's albums charted in the US, ranking them as the 6th best album chart performer during the 1960s, and the band had 14 singles in the Billboard Hot 100.

After their incredibly non-successful debut, Christmas With The Supraphonics!, Pulaski County’s #1 surf combo is back with another record destined for the cut-out bin. Still, the album is a very well-intentioned effort by a total fanatic to showcase amazing original instrumental songs by The Ventures—an extremely popular group best known (with some exceptions, of course) for their cover versions of other people’s songs. Hidden in plain sight on dozens of albums of mostly covers, The Ventures released scores of incredibly innovative and meticulously-arranged original songs. The Supraphonics selected 12 of their favourites and tried not to ruin them.
