It depends. Jorgen Ingmann's version has many surfy guitar licks. Muting, tic-tics, delay, chimey tone, energizing beat, and a sense of motion. In contrast, versions by the Shadows and the Ventures do not sound surfy to me. What makes something a surf song is the performance, not the song itself. —Insanitizers! http://www.insanitizers.com |

My fave. I always thought the Ingmann version grooved. |

Can't find the original on Youtube, but I keep coming back to this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpYIm9ewDF8 —http://www.reverbnation.com/thedeadranchhands http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZEW74mHjQk Last edited: Jun 14, 2012 13:32:40 |

It's so hard to pick just one. I think I have to go with "Midnight Run" by The Super Stocks. When I first heard it I thought it sounded unlike any other surf song I had heard before, yet at the same time it couldn't be more surf. — |

I already selected 'Similau' by The Surfaris. But right now, I'm looking at 'Tight Turn' by The Raybeats. |

Right now it would be The Roadrunners-Quasimoto and Pintor by the Pharaos. I live for cars and girls. |

I don't know why everyone is so mesmerized by Baja. It is a quintessential song, and it does have "That Sound" which they definitely put into the spotlight. But really Penetration had that too, and as far as songs go I'm much more down with Margaya or Moon Dawg for intensity and overall creativity. Not to take anything away from Baja, truly one of the greats, and how can you ever go wrong with Hazelwood? But it's definitely not the best song IMOSHO. —Jeremy |

See that's the one where I don't get it. It's such an obvious "Pipeline" knockoff, with a little bit of "Comin' Home Baby" thrown in for the chorus. IMO The Pyramids' other originals were better ... but there's still a bunch of other first wave stuff I'd take over those. —That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

Hello Louie, Greatest surf song? I have no idea. I could not even pick just one as my favorite. When someone asks me what's a good surf song? I always reply that "good" is not needed. They all are good. Talk to you later, |
