ABOUT THE RECORD Back to the Beach is a 1987 comedy film starring Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, directed by Lyndall Hobbs. The original music score is composed by Steve Dorff. The film generated a total domestic gross of $13,110,903. It received a "two thumbs up" rating from Siskel and Ebert. The film is an open parody of the beach party movies made popular in the 1960s, especially those in which Avalon and Funicello had appeared. The plot is merely the means of connecting the various sight gags, homages and in-jokes. All character names are taken from those earlier films. The film's soundtrack included covers of several well-known beach tunes, along with new songs by such artists as Aimee Mann and Private Domain. A reviewer on allmusic.com says, "Twenty years after the original Beach Party movies, Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon starred in the very best of the genre, Back to the Beach. The soundtrack is a great listen, especially for summer, but it does not quite measure up to the greatness of the film. There is no denying Jamaica Ska, Funicello's duet with Fishbone (and a remake of a song she sang during her Mouseketeer days) is so completely wonderful that listeners are hardly phased by how cornball it is. Frankie Avalon's California Sun is terrific too, and Pee Wee Herman guests on Surfing Bird, which is – if not one of his greatest moments – surely one of this film's."
