The Fantastic Baggys were an American surf and hot rod group, created by P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri.[1] The studio group released several unsuccessful singles. They released one album internationally, Tell 'Em I'm Surfin' (1964) on Imperial Records, and several singles and albums only in South Africa, where they proved to be briefly popular.[1]
They provided Jan and Dean with several songs to record, including "Summer Means Fun" and "From All over The World".[1]
