I just worked out a guitar arrangement of Nut Rocker on vintage gear (vintage 2011 that is). It's now on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBU96GjKeq4

Not positive, but I would assume that is a cover of the song originally by the Surf Raiders, if you are looking for the original.

Haulin' Hearse by The Ghastly Ones. We are adding this to our 'go to' set and have changed up a few parts to better fit our overall sound. This is such a fun song to play.

THE KBK ... This is the last known signal. We offer Sanctuary.

Great tune that is on our 'go to' set list too.

Looking for some jazz and a little libations - js

Ah the Nevegans, I believe that is the Original, my bad.

I just finished work on a sort of erotic-space-surf tune of mine. I uploaded it to my myspace.

'stampede' is up next starting tomorrow

Had to take a break from recording to practice for a gig, but The Woofers are finishing up two songs..."Ryan Seacrest" - a two-minute scorcher filled with lots of mini-leads, and "Double O Ocho" - another ADHD four-section surf overture in the spy-mexican-mystery sub-sub genre of surf music.

The Woofers - Michigan Surf Band

I'm working on The TomorrowMen version of David Bowie's Moonage Daydream for the Cordelia comp. I'm glad to say that our first run through was quite a success and I'm excited about how the song will ultimately come out. I'm also still working on the lead to Frankie and the Poolboys' Magyara, being covered by Meshugga Beach Party on our new album - Hot Rod Hanukkah. That is one tricky lead.

Somebody at our last gig really wanted to hear Hawaii 5-0. We sorta bashed it out at last practice and actually got all the way through once. (By the way, what a weird f-in tune.)

I think the other guys would want to kill me if I posted it here. Smile http://ssiv.org/upload/practice/hawaii50.mp3 Forgive the crappy sound.

Reverb Galaxy is working on "Moonlight over Mavericks"-very rough version at
http://www.youtube.com/reverbgalaxy#p/a/u/2/j_mA_F-b6KE - we used this to remember the arrangement because we didn't have any recording equipment set up. Cool

I wonder if because the original song was written for an
orchestra that would make it weird to play on guitar?

I thought you guys did a pretty fair job on Hawaii 5-0 for a new effort. My band has gotten requests for this song many times, so we are attempting to learn it now too. - AND, you are right - it is a weird song. Every version I run across seems to have a different interpretation, especially when it comes to timing in the ending sections. Kind of a fun song when it works, though.

Yes, you are exactly right. We took our best shot at an arrangement but it has a lot of interacting horn parts. We still need to work out what the rhythm guitar should do, for example.

Like I said, we got through the song only once. The outro we must have played 10 times. The last measures where you go from (in our arrangement - emulating the horn stabs) four measures of A then ascending eighth notes to Bb - C - D, ending on D, the bass and rhythm guitar (and snare) we decided should play on the 1 and 3 and the lead guitar (and toms) should play on the 2 and 4. It seems a bit awkward to me but there is something like that going on in the original tune.

HaHaHa! I've got a Setzer tab book & when I get emotionally drained from trying to play his stuff, I go back to Straitjackets. morphball wrote:

I got frustrated with Setzer's version of Caravan this
weekend, and knocked out a couple I was meaning to
learn, Our Favorite Martian (LSJ) and Squad Car (SP).
Trad stuff is usually so quick to learn but gratifying!

After watching the awesome new blu-ray 'Jeff Beck's Rock n Roll Party' I am now trying to play his version of 'Sleepwalk'

I'm on a Phantom Frank Gerritsen learning binge at the moment, currently learning "Jaa-Rabbbi". On the to-do list is "Vahim", "Dilmohammed" and "La Bajada".
