Wow, thanks surfaca, wooza, Jake & Tony! I'm really honored. For me, it's all about the two Franks: Frankie Blandino (the Fathoms) and Phantom Frank Gerritsen (the Treble Spankers & the Phantom Four). They both consistently blow me away with their melodies and arrangements. Too many songs by each to list.... And there are many others, too.... —Ivan |

Ship Song - Nick Cave And loads of others. Surfwise there are quite a lot of Bambi Molesters and Slacktone pieces I wish I'd come up with and numerous others too .. but its easier to pick out a few quickly with vocal songs. —http://www.myspace.com/thepashuns Youth and enthusiasm are no match for age and treachery. |

I'll try to limit it to five. And I'll fail, so I'll at least try to limit it to surf/instro. Ventures - "Journey to the Stars," & "He Never Came Back" And "Into the Void," "Snowblind" and "Hole in the Sky." Oh, and both "Psychotic Reaction"s. And both "Ace of Spades." And ... -Warren —That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

An alternate meaning from the Webster's dictionary: 4: a distinctive or characteristic sound or series of sounds Embrace the exceptions! Back on topic; so many great songs I wish I had written, here are but a few, in no particular order: Squad Car ...and so many more... |

Surf songs certainly are not even songs. They are odd songs. "Hello Girls!" |

I call them songs, I'm just saying that a song is called a song because you sing in it. The word song doesn't not originate when music was created. |

"Son of Mr. Green Genes", i mean c'mon Zappa was a great Composer and this song proves it, i wish i could say it was my song, all those instruments all over the place very well arranged, the time signature changes ahh its one of my top Zappa songs, of course a lot of the credit also goes to the musicians who had to deal with an asshole like him haha, some might think this is just another 10+ minute Zappa Jam but listen to it closely and u'll hear what im talking about! That Whole Album is out of this world. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORI8opad82E —-Zanti Instagram: |

Abe, that entire album is just incredible. It showcases some of Coltrane's most powerful balladry ever captured on record IMHO. Also, Duke plays some very subtle and deep piano on that record (reminds me a bit of Bill Evans in some places.) Also check out John Coltrane w/ Johnny Hartman (vocals) for another side of Coltrane. —Ryan |

Yeah, I've got a ton of Monk. My favorite Monk is probably his classic Blue Note and Riverside sides: Misterioso, Monk's Mood, Ruby My Dear, etc... His Columbia stuff is great as well. The Thelonius Monk with John Coltrane on Riverside is a MUST have. —Ryan |

Yeah I've heard Monk w/Coltrane. My lil'bro has a live album with both of them. I'm not sure what it's called, but they play Epistrophy 2 times. — |
HAVE YOU LOST YOUR FREAKIN' MIND?
Hot Rats is a great album!
Lately I've been listening to some Jazz. And one song in particular that I really like is "In a Sentimental Mood" by Duke Ellington w/John Coltrane. Such a wonderful tune. You can listen to it here Please visit our friends in the surf music community:
