New band starting up. Looking for more spy/60s lounge sounding surf tunes to add to our set. So far, all we've really got is man of mystery by the shadows. What are some other tunes that have that moody, mellow tiki lounge vibe?

here's a few spy tunes i've used in my radio show.......
spy vs spy vs spy by burt rocket
spy's demise by the exotics
s.p.y.d.a.'s web by laika and the cosmonauts
spy school graduation by squid vicious
peter gunn theme
f.b.i. by the shadows
the pink panther theme

the agent from planet spy by burt rocket
mr. d's mystery by Hj from continental magazine #18 (very lounge-esque)

i'm sure you could slow down and lounge up some of these like the blue hawaiians did with martini 5-0

Henry Mancini's songs are great for this. We do a night of Mancini tunes on occassion. Off the top of my head:
Arabesque, Baby Elephant Walk, Peter Gunn, Charade, Lujon, Pink Panther, Shot in the Dark, It had Better be Tonight, Push the Button Max, Mr Yunioshi, Moon River. There are many more to choose from.

Austin's Theme - James Taylor Quartet You'll probably want to replace all that organ/brass with guitars.
Tank! - The Seatbelts theme from Cowboy Bebop (first track in video)
Jonny Quest Theme - Hoyt Curtin
