MPR: The story behind 'Surfin' Bird'
Featuring Rick Shefchik's EVERYBODY'S HEARD ABOUT THE BIRD.

The new book "Everbody's Heard About the Bird: The True Story of 1960s Rock N Roll in Minnesota" by veteran Minnesota journalist Rick Shefchik tells the story of The Trashmen — and the bands that came before and after.
