Phil:
I don't get what the "Slave
Girl"/"Cairo"/"Maleguena"/"Latin'ia" reference means... did
"Latin'ia" precede or influence "Sleepwalk"?
Or did all those tunes lead up to "surf"? should the
Roubanis version of "Miserlou" be included on that list?
What are you meaning?...I don't get it...
re: the Belairs...yeah, I know they wrote and played Mr.
Moto first, and I'm sure Mr. Moto was a huge influence on
many (maybe even on DD himself)...but, like I said, I was
going out on a limb with that one...I think DD had a bigger
impact on the proto-surf-scene overall. Just an
unsupported bias, on my part, I suppose...and the
never-ending LA/OC rivalry...
re: SENTINALS (!!!)...thanks, I do think we owe the
originators the respect of spellin' their names correctly.
as always, most enlightening post,
