A Hawaii 5- 0 revival 
Anyone checked the Hawaii 5-0 in the download section ?
how accurate is it ?
To my memory it's pretty darned accurate (as I remember the TV show as well, it's a Venture like arrangement but with brass & keys). It's been played a number of ways & it seems like this one has an extra measure early into the finish, and then is commensurately short a measure. You just have to manipulate it in software (or else simply play it that way). Then again I'm relying on a feeble memory.
FYI, there is also a backing track available ($) for this from The Atlantics' Point Zero album - that album & its full companion backing tracks are available on the net. Some latitude on that one, as Martin really smokes this tune.

*pscates points up a great musicological point about 1st Wave Surf Music. Trad tunes have genetic links and come in "families". This is a universal phenomenon of language and music laid bare in the surf idiom. It's a principle that makes learning and remembering easy. So now all that is left is to develop the hard things like picking technique and aesthetic sense.
I've learned "Ali Baba", "Casbah" and "Exotic" (and then realized they were all basically the same notes).
Surf (at least the traditional, classic "first wave" stuff I listen to and play) is kinda like bluegrass, I guess...you learn one song (or lick, passage, turnaround, solo, etc.) and you've basically learned about 35 others. 
It's a really efficient, "good bang for the buck" genre to get into...a little goes a really long way!

Good luck Jeff! I haven't sat down on my kit for about a year. I leave the heavy lifting to someone else. Too much work and practice needed.

Really fun time surfing up this sugar sweet pop tune from the mid 60's.
I'm having great expectations with this nice melody line and the whole song that was on our "to do" list for a while.
Man, this classic teen tune screams for the use of cutting reverb, bloody ringing open strings and muted strings too, heavy double picking and sharpened chords.
Btw, France Gall is the classiest girl in town.
Absolutely classy lady. Laissez Tomber Les Filles is another one that is a stomper. April March did an English language version "Chick Habit" which was used in the Tarantino movie Death Proof.

That's right, some of them where quite groovy tunes. Most of these songs were composed for romantic young singers (Brigitte Bardot, Jane Birkin,...) by horny french pianist/singer Serge Gainsbourg. Sadly, it took ingenuous young France Gall a few years to understand there was a salacious double meaning in the lyrics of some songs Gainsbourg had composed for her and that she was singing...
Yeah, I'd heard that! Wasn't one pervy song about her enjoying er...."lollipops"?

"Off the Board" by The Thunderchiefs. That song kicks butt and, because I can't get it out of my head anyway, I decided to learn it.

So whist practicing my drums this morning I'm modifying this little beat I've played for years and years and it hits me like a Showman amp upside the head, "Hey, if I just build a song around this beat it might be really cool AND I won't have to agonize over the drums later doing them over and over and over and over!" Rhythm problem beat!

Ah! Cool Ludo!
In fact you need two guitars for this song. If you can play it with one it is okay.
The timing is hard in this song. But it is a question of training at all... (like always and with every song... blabla... )
Can you play it meanwhile?
In fact i haven't play a lot since,but now i have rebeguin to play
i stop working the Kileauas stuff
too boring ,and moreover need a strat an peavey to sound right 
joke ,i need to retry cause i have forget since
