Almost wanted to put this one in the shallow end.

I've seen this before. The Ventures trying to stay relevant in the 80's? God awful. Let's not forget they did a disco song too. The Ventures doing Disco!!! I'm trying to forget but can't.

As Disco goes it's not the worst I've heard. I guess you do what you have to to keep the lights on. —The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. |

However one may want to justify the reasoning behind it, I don't see how fans of 60's instrumental music can fail to be sickend by those videos. |

So THAT'S where it came from! I have a Beloved Invaders DVD of questionable legitimacy that had this video before the movie. I could never figure out a.) Why someone would do that, and b.) All of the above.
The whole Rocky Road album is in that vein. That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

This is only vaguely relevant, but has anyone heard Daikaiju's disco song? It's one of my favorite new instro tunes in a while. Frigging epic. Here's a video, though it doesn't do the song much justice, especially without the extended syncopated ending. I figure only anyone who's seen them play live will know what I'm talking about, but this song must be heard! |

That's Rodney Bingenheimer driving the car at the beginning. I wonder if he put them up to this... —http://www.satanspilgrims.com |

It's possible, but The Ventures have had other lapses in judgment... the Rocky Road Disco album being their worst offense. The Ventures Play The Carpenters is a close second. Or the Jim Croce songbook? (Insert holding back gag sound here). But since they put out so much great stuff, some of it is forgivable. Well, except for the disco album. —BOSS FINK "R.P.M." available now from DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS! |

I motion that we change the subject to "must not see". I'm not even going to watch the disco vid, as I don't want to further taint my image of them... let's just remember the happier times...

I have almost all of their albums up to 1967. After that, The Ventures simply doesn't exist to me. — |

I concur Baron the disco song sucks.I've hated it ever since someone at One Way Records decided to put this on Go with the Ventures!/Batman Theme CD.That tune isn't something you wanna hear at the end of those two awesome records or ever the way I see it. Reverb, It's A Way Of Life! |

Well than you my friend are sadly missing out on some great albums as far as I'm concerned " RADICAL GUITARS (1987)" "Golden Pops / Pops in Japan '71 " "Pops In Japan - Vol. 1 / Pops In Japan - Vol. 2 " has some really great songs that any Ventures fan shouldn't be without. —Reverb, It's A Way Of Life! |

The pie in the face gag is timeless! At the one Ventures show I went to in the 90's, I bought a cool, clear vinyl NASA-commemorative album for $5....HORRIBLE! BEWARE! BEWARE! |
