Apart from Billy Milano, it featured a completely different line-up compared to the first album released a little more than a year previous – it included among others, Tim Mallare on drums, who later went on to play with the thrash metal band Overkill.
This release has two parts:
-"The Movie" (track 1) which is a spoken word story featuring actual songs in between the dialogue for a fake movie.
-"The Sound Track Without The Movie" (tracks 2-8). It is the actual music from the movie separated into tracks and without all the dialogue.
Incorrect Track listing
The CD lists the following erroneous track list on the cover:
| No. | Title | Length |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | "Surfin' U.S.A." | |
| 2. | "Surf's Up" | |
| 3. | "Sargent Drexell Theme" | |
| 4. | "Mr. Oofus" | |
| 5. | "Party Animal" | |
| 6. | "Color My World" | |
| 7. | "Shout" |
- This track list is in fact incorrect, as "The Movie" is track one, "Sargent Drexell Theme" is only included as part of track one, and there is an unlisted CD-bonus track ("New Song") as track eight.
Actual Track listing
All songs written by M.O.D., unless stated otherwise
| No. | Title | Length |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | "The Movie
| 23:32 |
| 2. | "Surfin' U.S.A." (The Beach Boys cover) | 2:34 |
| 3. | "Surf's Up" | 2:03 |
| 4. | "Mr. Oofus" | 3:36 |
| 5. | "Party Animal" | 3:20 |
| 6. | "Color My World" (Chicago cover) | 1:57 |
| 7. | "Shout" (The Isley Brothers cover) | 4:26 |
| 8. | "New Song" (Scream cover) | 1:52 |
- Track 8 is a CD bonus track.
- The album includes several uncredited samples from the 1987 film "Back to the Beach", starring Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Lori Loughlin and Connie Stevens.
