Hello Everyone,

This beautiful surf guitar instrumental was stumbled across. Does anyone know the work and author from the attached California beach video?

Thank you.

I don't know, but it sounds similar to some of the songs that Jimmy Wilseys(ex of Chris Isakk's band) did on his solo cd
"El Dorado"

I don't think it's the Aqua Velvets but it has their vibe

The guy's name is Chris Blackwell. He calls it "Surfer Girl" same title but not the BB's song of the same name. I am "assuming" that he is the writer of the song but can't say that for a fact. I just remember running scross a YT vid quite some time ago that listed his name in the credits.

More importantly, is that available on a CD somewhere? That is a great tune!

It says on the video it's from his album "Surf Guitar". I didn't see much info on it from a Google search. It may have been released in 2007 from what I saw on one of the sites I checked.

A few years ago I got an email from Chris Blackwell../ very nice guy, and a great drummer/composer. Cool that you have found that track!

Anyone have a tab for Chis Blackwell's "Surfer Girl"? I suck at breaking down songs and couldn't find one online. Any assistance will be appreciated.
