That's a good question Bill. It seems like you weren't a real 60's surf band
unless you had a song called <Insert Your Band Name Here>'s Stomp. The
Atlantics, in particular, had about 1000 stomp songs :) My favorite is
called SOS (Stomp on Stomp). And then there is Stompede, Tequilla Stomp,
Stomping Time, and lets not forget The Teddy Bear's Picnic Stomp (okay
lets). This is just the Atlantics, mind you. Other bands had a lot of "stomp
songs" too.
I'd love to hear the answer to this as well. I'll shoot Paul Johnson an
email on this one.
