    The Electric Prunes were from my neighborhood, Santa Clara, CA. It’s was known as the “Prune Capitol of the World. By the time I arrived in 1963 the orchards were were going down like dominoes under the spreading carpet of pastel stucco and cedar shake roofs. The 4-BR we bought unfinished two blocks from Emil R. Buchser High School (It will NEVER be Santa Clara High!) in 1963 for $24,500 was priced at $1.4 Million last time I checked. California went from being the place to go, to the place people can’t get out of fast enough.

      My dad bought new hone on Prune Tree Lane in Cupertino in 1961 and left in 1969. Great place to grow up in the cherry and apricot orchards and rec center in summer on trampolines and excursions to sf games and yosemite etc. didnt realize how great it was riding mini bike on streets and being in house when street lights wrnt on. New house cost under $20k and affordable while mom sttayed home and raised 6 kids. 3 blocks from what would become Apple. Caught the best decade. Couldnt afford it today even if wanted to live there again.

    Nice cover of this song! Your sound is great, paying homage to 60’s classic surfer music. When I first heard this song, I was in grade school. I thought the singer was singing, “I had too much to drink last night” 😆

      Same, here. Wasn't surf really, more like early psychedelic with the opening. It makes a great surf tune though, especially these gals :)

    I am the Hindu Elvis of San Francisco surf legends the Aquamen. And this is the best thing I’ve seen in years. Thank you wish we could play with you at the Purple Onion back in the mid nineties 🤣

    The Ventures never looked this good, even in their best day.
