I haven't heard a heavier version that's still surf since Dick Dale & Stevie Ray Vaughan played it. I like it a lot. All I had to do to get it to play was open the file that appears after clicking on the link. — This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got.

Like most surf recordings from the 80's(or most 80's recordings in general), I absolutely hate the homogonized production on the DD/SRV version of Pipeline. I will say that it fit quite well with Dick's hair during the Back to the Beach movie. — THE KBK ... This is the last known signal.

RonC57 Joined: Sep 16, 2011 Posts: 33 Citrus County,Florida	Posted on Aug 15 2013 03:08 PM Hi there, I just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. My name is Ron I live in central Florida just outside of Ocala. I just wanted to tell you guys that this is the greatest website for guitar players. I moved down here from up north a few years ago and was trying to get something going doing rockabilly and surf. After a few times of trying to put a band together I pretty much have stopped wasting my time. Down in this area it is nothing but classic rock cover bands, not very many musicians in tune to rockabilly and surf.But hey, it is what it is. I am not much of a singer so I decided just to concentrate my playing on instrunmentals and surf. I have always been into The Ventures, Duane Eddy,Dick Dale and surf in general.I have just recently discovered Los Straitjackets. This website has been a great resource for me in discovering the history and what's currently going on in surf music. I have been checking out everything on it just about every day for the last couple of months. Thanks again Top

I talked to a bass player about a week ago who seemed interested about playing some surf so we'll see. Thanks again Top

If you want to share your interest in surf or learn more about it, you are in the right place. We have a great bunch of guys and gals here. Every one from absolute beginners to old hacks (like myself) to some of the best surf guitarists on the planet. Ocala? Used to be a quiet little town back when my grandfather moved there. He lived there for 30 years. I went to grad school at Gainesville and drove over a couple times to look at the horse farms. I really like your 57 Chevy. Hard to tell from the photo. Is it Tropical Turquoise and Ivory? Talk to you later, Norm Top
GhostHost Joined: Aug 17, 2013 Posts: 7 Denver, CO	Posted on Aug 17 2013 06:07 PM Hi, I'm Ross. The "GhostHost". I was hoping to have my username as TheHatboxGhost, but I guess that name was taken. My username reflects my love for The Haunted Mansion. I have been teaching myself to play guitar for about three and a half years, and I have a basic understanding of music theory now, but I mostly use minor scales and chords. The Ghastly Ones got me into Surf, and I love to play Surf, but I am also trying to re-learn the guitar since I learned Music Theory on piano, and would also like to understand surf-guitar better. — Winter's razor at the base of my spine.
