Just remembered this the other day from my youth. Perhaps this is "how not to play surf music, stick with your Scorpions day job." Herman Rarebell - Wipeout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYDdOostmbo —Plus! Other stuff not surf: https://soundcloud.com/jamesmileshq |

Yeah, the song's not great, but you can tell that he's a fan of surf music, so that counts for something... —Sean Surf CD's / Vinyl / Fanzines / DVD's |

For sure he is. And I'm a fan of the Scorpions too! Just a kinda funny blast from the past here. I remember this getting a decent amount of airplay on MTV. Not really my kind of 'surf' music though. —Plus! Other stuff not surf: https://soundcloud.com/jamesmileshq |

This has to be one of history's least essential albums. Who was the record label guy that approved this project? Ha-ha. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

?!?!?!?!!!??What's the matter, the Gang doesn't like to hear a 'tad bit' more modern version with a little 'Fuzz' (Overdrive) and support a Classic?!?!? Come on Guys, get over it! Every once in a while, it IS good to get out of the Bathtub (Reverb Tank) and listen to a Legend Tune with a slightly more modern sound to it :roll:....... —.......make the Mos' of it, |

That is awful. My ears! My eyes! I might play Wipeout at our gig Saturday just for spite! And while I have readily dismissed Wipeout as bad cheese, for Parrotheads mostly, this kicks major ass: |

Dennis, I'm a (early) Scorpions fan, there I said it, but that was AWFUL. He didn't get the drum part right. —Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

Is this really surf music or just a surf music tune played in another style? |

Ah semantics! I can say there are some hamfisted metal tunes I really like and then there are many I do not like. This one is on the side I don't really like much, though I'm sure Herman had tons of fun playing this song (good for him). To me personally, surf music is that music which conjures up images of a beach, some waves, surfers (maybe) and the feeling of being underwater. In that case, you could call a lot music "surf." —Plus! Other stuff not surf: https://soundcloud.com/jamesmileshq |
