Unfortunately, we will not have a trumpet player to lay in those nice Herb Alpert licks that are in the Fathoms version! Top
Syndicateofsurf Joined: Oct 08, 2014 Posts: 1073 Northern Ohio	Posted on Jan 28 2015 10:53 AM Well maybe you just ran out of new music to listen to and so you might want to go to the DOWNLOADS section of SG101 and click on my latest tune called "Kids Love DEER PARK!". It is instro but not quite surf. It is nostalgic and happy and both Noel and Jeff stuck their big ol collective thumbs up in the air when they heard it. Special thanks to Noel for his feedback which pushed me to make some needed edits.

Currently taking a dinner break to refresh the ears. Hope to have this one in "the can" by this evening. Three more tracks to record. Looks like we are actually on schedule to have the recording done by the end of February. Fingers are crossed and at this point we are still speaking to each other. Amazing. Reverbs! ed — Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp. Did I mention that I still like big blonde amps? Top

SixStringSurfer Joined: Sep 23, 2014 Posts: 1415 Memphis, TN	Posted on Feb 23 2015 03:22 PM Hey guys, I am working on "Latin'ia" by The Sentinals right now, and am stuck after 1:57. The tab from this site helped me, but I don't think it's entirely accurate. Can someone please help me with the chords/notes? I am not asking you to tab it for me, just need help after the E and the F chords, I am lost. — MooreLoud.com - A tribute to Dick Dale. New EP Louder Than Life available on bandcamp and website. Top

Nice Iggy reference! Doing a remake of "No Surf in Cleveland" by the Euclid Beach Band. It was a thing in Ohio late 70's.

Badger Joined: Nov 16, 2013 Posts: 4536 Wisconsin	Posted on Mar 20 2015 01:08 PM Working on something original (a first). OMG, this krap is work, but the idea-faerie paid a visit & I've got to dump it or obsess over it. SSS, did you get any responses RE Latin'ia? I just did this over one of the b/t's a good member has here on the site.

Badger Joined: Nov 16, 2013 Posts: 4536 Wisconsin	Posted on Mar 29 2015 01:33 PM Titoli (Fistful of Dollars) as arranged by Bradipos IV. Combination of Danny's (accurate) assessment of the song, plus I'm building a fuzz next month, and I need a cheap bass that'll probably come home tomorrow, and I'm laying in my own drum tracks.... Morricone isn't like going down a rabbit-hole; it's like the whole warren. But learning alot and it's fun. — Wes SoCal ex-pat with a snow shovel DISCLAIMER: The above is opinion/suggestion only & should not be used for mission planning/navigation, tweaking of instruments, beverage selection, or wardrobe choices.

Need to add some animal/bird noises and misc goofy effects. I'm in a student ensemble and we're currently learning Fugitive. That tune really works better with the hound dogs between verses, so we're brainstorming a way to play that back live (and on the cheap, probably using a cell phone). Also we're working out a couple Atlantics tunes - Night Star and Reef Break. Top

Badger Joined: Nov 16, 2013 Posts: 4536 Wisconsin	Posted on Mar 29 2015 07:49 PM Thanks Jeff, knew for awhile I wanted one. Many times I'd be dinking around with an OD I have (which is good in its role), but wishing it was a true fuzz like from when I was a kid, which I'd use more.

I never pursued fuzz pedals again even though I was a huge Hendrix fan until I got back into Surf/Instro and started my band. Now I've always got one ear open to fuzz pedals. O.k. That's my last topic digression for now, LOL. Cheers, Jeff — http://www.facebook.com/CrazyAcesMusic http://www.youtube.com/user/crazyacesrock http://www.reverbnation.com/crazyacesmusic Top
