Permalink Six Degrees of Separation Game

New Topic
Goto Page: 1 2 Next

Anyone want to play? It works like this. You name an artist/band, then you or someone tries to link it to, in this case, surf music in six degrees/steps or less.

Example: Bob Dylan 1. Recorded albums featuring Mark Knopfler on lead guitar 2. Mark Knopfler has recorded with Chet Atkins. 3. Chet Atkins recorded Walk Don't Run. 4. The Ventures made a hit record of Walk Don't Run. 5. The Ventures recorded Surfin' album. I made it in 5 steps!

Now who should we start with????

Genghis Khan?

that's gonna take way more than 6 steps, haha.

The Tremblors on Facebook!

The Tremblors on MySpace!

Geeesh, I think I can connect myself to the president of the United States in 2 or 3 degrees, so we can do better than 5 for Dylan and Surf. Here's what I found:

Dylan recorded the "Under the Red Sun" LP with Stevie Ray Vaughan
(source - http://www.bobdylan.com/linernotes/under.html)

And we all know Stevie Ray Vaughan recorded Pipeline with Dick Dale (Tribal Thunder).

That's 2! Very Happy Laughing Exclamation

  • the band "Bad News" Recorded a song called "Im a worrior of Ghengis Kahn"
  • Bad News is actually the cast of brittish comedy "the young ones"
  • the cast of "the young ones" rerecorded "living Doll" with Cliff Richard
  • Cliff Richard used to play with the Shadows
  • IvanP used to play in a shadows tribute band
  • IvanP played in the Space Cossacks and now the Madeira

voila. Im sure it can be done shorter but im tired.

Amoeba Music stores in San Francisco/Bay Area sell surf music albums/CDs

One degree of separation?..or maybe two if you need to trace to a band that recorded the album

From dickdale.net: " I can play every instrument there is, every horn, I've played all the saxes and trumpets and everything and keyboards."

So, he must also play the fallopian tuba.

Shocked ...the workings of the human mind often leaves me speechless...

good job, Ivan!

I was expecting an easy "My girlfriend/wife has a fallopian tube, I date my girlfriend/wife, I play surf" but I guess I'm giving you all too much credit

Storm Surge of Reverb: Surf & Instro Radio

Alternately ...

1.) The Adolescents recorded an awesome song called "Amoeba"
2.) The Adolescents were/are from Fullerton, CA
3.) Fender Electric Instruments Company opens in Fullerton, in 1946.
4.) (insert Fender-surf connection of your choice)

-Warren

That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it.

The Fender P-Bass has an amoeba pickguard.
