They did 2 dates in southern Ontario with the same lineup. Meet Uriah Heep and they where awesome. If I remember correctly it was the Total Recall tour1993. It was a fantastic show overall.

Doing the nostalgia tour of my record collection this weekend and I spent half the day listening to these guys. I forgot they made this great instro. As far from surf as you could get, and perhaps far from "cool" too but hey I was a big fan back in the day.

How about Roy Buchannan's sublime instrumental cover of "Sweet Dreams"?

Double Naught Spy Car's Deutsch Bag. Their "Comb in Blue Water" album has a couple of other greats such as "Double Naught Spy Car" but also several songs that I don't care to hear again. The album title reflects the band's previous name, "Pink Floyd The Barber." They had to drop that name because lawyers got involved.

So many favorite non-surf instrumentals. But the song Close (To The Edit) from The Art Of Noise amazed me the most when I first heard it played on the radio. So different than everything else. Still great to listen to.

Dunno if it's been mentioned before in this thread.
And if I recall correctly, Slacktone may have dabbled with doing a version of it. But I've always liked since I was a little kid "Frankensein"
By Edgar Winter group.
