Thanks Chris! I'll give those a peep.
And says:
>>Anything by the ventures
Absolutely! ;-)
That's certainly the right 'wave'length!
I was helping my wife with some 'house rehab' chores last night
... so I brought a radio and grabbed a handful of disks off the
'country' shelf from home ... completely forgetting about this
thread.
No lie: First tune I crank up is "Deep Water" by Asleep At
The Wheel! {My weird boat-ma making fun of me, no doubt.)
Anyway, even though it's very old school (and mellow) 'Western
Swing', it managed to trigger some deeply buried synapse in
my subconscious ... and I suddenly felt a need to add
"Pipeline" to the list - so I'm definitely with ya on the
Ventures!
Prolly have to add the Surfari's "Wipe Out" (You can't tow
skiers without a copy of "Wipe Out" handy, can ya? It just
wouldn't be right!) and then back to the Ventures for the
"Hawaii Five-O Theme". (You couldn't not smile with the
throttle down and Five-O blasting away!)
But, somehow, delving into Beach Boys and Jan & Dean tunes
from there would be just, I dunno, 'too predictable' I guess.
Reggae would work well - the 'flavor' and mood are right. I'll
definitely need to add some, but then I think I'll draw on
Aardie's 'eclectic' tune list. That should be more interesting
than going down the 'Surfing Surfari' route.
Thanks!
RonL.
